Safeguarding Children Policy
Safeguarding Children
Kolmar Charitable Trust (KCT) seeks to protect the health, safety and wellbeing of all people participating in activities at Kolmar Charitable Trust and its members. To ensure that suitable and appropriate staff and volunteers (including parents) are working with children and young people, a robust recruitment and safety checking/screening process should be followed for all roles. Screening/safety checking is also required for staff and volunteers currently engaged in existing roles. A child/young person is recognised as someone under the age of 18 years.
The Sport New Zealand – Child Safeguarding Policies and Procedures goes into further detail including providing a safety checking flow chart, protocols, processes for keeping children, young people, staff and volunteers safe at Kolmar Charitable Trust. We recommend you become familiar with the content of this policy and procedures.
