Document contents

1 Scope and prevention

Safety covers premises, visits, work-related travel, events, volunteers and the public. The Director checks suitability of premises use, permits, conditions and applicable insurance. Venue-owner approval does not replace activity approvals.(1)

2 Site assessment

Before operation, evacuation exits, capacity, accessibility for people of determination, electricity, fire safety, first aid, assembly arrangements and child protection are assessed. A site contact is appointed and risks treated before public opening. Equipment must not block exits or exceed approved capacity; qualified maintenance is verified.

3 Entry and asset protection

Premises keys, access cards, visitors and contractors are controlled through registers and permissions. Visitors are escorted in restricted areas. Files and entrusted assets are kept away from public access. Cameras or audio recording require a valid basis, notice, access controls and appropriate retention.

4 Urgent response

When life is at risk, local emergency services are called and specialist instructions followed. Evacuation goes to the designated assembly point; people are counted without returning to danger for papers or equipment. Qualified persons provide first aid within their training. Staff and volunteers do not administer medication or make treatment decisions beyond licensing.

5 Incidents and reporting

Incidents and near misses, time, place, injuries, actions and witnesses are recorded; evidence is preserved without obstructing rescue. The Director, competent authority or insurer is notified within applicable periods. Facts are distinguished from speculation. Medical information uses restricted channels; an injured person’s image or name is not published for publicity documentation.

6 Readiness and follow-up

Evacuation plans, contact lists and equipment are checked periodically and before events; supervisors are trained in their roles. Causes are investigated and corrective actions assigned deadlines. Unsafe areas reopen only after specialist approval. Insurance cover and exclusions are reviewed when activity type or participant numbers change.
