1 A Guide to developing BROTHEL OPERATIONAL PLANS POLICIES AND PROCEDURES
2 Scope and Purpose of this Guide The purpose of this guide is to provide licensees with the key that may be addressed when developing policies and procedures. Policies and procedures are integral to the efficient running of any business. As you are aware it is a condition of licence for licensees to develop an operational plan. This guide has included those items required in the operational plan and additional elements to assist in the development of more comprehensive operational policies and procedures. Presently, licensees of brothels in Queensland are required to maintain an operational plan for premises and be able to communicate the operational plan to staff and sex workers. Key workplace issues covered by the operational plan are as follows: Roles and responsibility of management, employees and workers Advertising material Sexual health education for sex workers, their clients and management Sexual health assessment for sex workers Personal protective equipment management (for example, storage, handling of PPE, sex toys and other equipment; disinfecting equipment, storage and handling of waste) Reproductive health (for example, pregnant workers) How other occupational health and safety issues will be approached Security and safety from violence, including arrangements that are in place to ensure the safety of persons directly involved in providing prostitution Accident reporting Rehabilitation Worker s compensation (if applicable) Cleanliness The extent of the licensee s involvement in the day-to-day operation of the brothel Staffing structure of the brothel and duties of staff Recruitment strategies Many licensees have indicated the need to have additional policy identified to assist them in development of more comprehensive policies and procedures. This document has been written to provide further assistance in that area but is by no means exhaustive. Licensees will find that it includes policy that are either mandated through the conditions of licence, Prostitution Act 1999, the Prostitution Regulation 2000 or which arise out of a practical need. Other government resources that may assist you include the Department of Industrial Relations, Division of Workplace Health and Safety, Queensland Fire and Rescue Service, and Queensland Health. These and other government departments may be accessed via the Internet on 1
3 Development of Policies and Procedures What is a Policy? A policy presents the particular issue being addressed and a broad statement of intent or outcome for management of the issue. An operational plan may incorporate a range of policies and procedures. It should provide the guiding principal, aim or course of action, and influence decisions. Policies and procedures may also suit different levels of need. That is, they may represent management issues representing a more business-oriented focus or provide information targeting a day-to-day or more practical level of need. What is a Procedure? The procedure steps out the specific tasks or actions to achieve the policy outcome. This is basically the who, what, where, how much and when of your document. It should provide information in such detail as to provide clear direction to a staff member who may be unfamiliar with the steps involved in a procedure. It refers not only to how to go about a procedure but may include monitoring and maintenance of the desired outcome. It may be necessary to have a number of procedural elements under one policy area. For example a safety and security policy will require identification of different elements such as: -Clients -The physical environment -Staff responsibilities -Duress alarms -And so on. Note: There is no specified way to set up your policies and procedures. Many licensees have adopted different styles. The content and the actual effectiveness of the document is the most critical aspect. Procedures are most valuable when they have a practical value by being clear, comprehensive and available for immediate reference. Keeping procedures current and relevant to your own circumstances will maintain their value and usefulness in your own day-to-day operations. 2
4 Documentation of policies and procedures Having identified the task how can you document your policies and procedures? With the policies and procedures compiled into a ring binder folder they may be updated individually as required. Note that the developed procedures will vary in length and complexity according to need. One suggested format is as follows: Policy Safety and Security To provide a safe and secure environment for staff and sex workers at Brothel XXX 1.1 Duress alarms 1.1A Testing of Duress alarms Procedure O Procedure O Procedure Procedure the description of resources and sequence of the actions required, I.e. the who, what, where, when, how much, resources, contact numbers and so on. 1.1B Procedure in the event of a duress alarm being activated 1.1C Contact numbers And so on Review Update Mechanism Monitoring or review considerations for 1.1 The table on the following page is designed to provide direction in that are relevant for development of policies and procedures for brothels. They are not intended to limit the scope of policy development and are provided in response to requests for guidance in this area. The compliance officers at the PLA can also provide further information by phoning
