Health and safety
We have a duty of care to avoid exposing our volunteers to health and safety risks. All volunteers will be made aware of our health and safety policy and any practical safety concerns as part of their induction. Volunteers are expected to comply with the policy.
All volunteer roles will be risk assessed. This will cover the tasks involved and the environment in which they will be conducted. In addition, where a volunteer makes us aware of a pre-existing medical condition or disability, an individual risk assessment may be necessary.
