1 Safeguarding and Welfare Requirement: Safety and Suitability of Premises, Environment and Equipment Providers must have a clear and well-understood policy, and procedures for assessing any risks to children s safety, and review risk assessments regularly. Policy Number: OK 8.4 Applicability: Woodland Adventurers Ltd 8.4 Risk assessment Policy statement We believe that the health and safety of children is of paramount importance. We make our setting a safe and healthy place for children, parents, staff and volunteers by assessing and minimising the hazards and risks to enable the children to thrive in a healthy and safe environment. Risk assessment means: Taking note of aspects of your workplace, activities or other criteria that could cause harm, either to yourself or to others, and deciding what needs to be done to prevent that harm, making sure this is adhered to. The law does not require that all risk is eliminated, but that reasonable precaution is taken. This is particularly important when balancing the need for children to be able to take appropriate risks through physically challenging play. Children need the opportunity to work out what is not safe and what they should do when faced with a risk. Health and safety risk assessments inform procedures. Staff and parents should be involved in reviewing risk assessments and procedures they are the ones with first-hand knowledge as to whether the control measures are effective and they can give an informed view to help update procedures accordingly. This policy is based on the five steps below: Identification of a risk: Where is it and what is it? Who is at risk: Childcare staff, children, parents, cooks, cleaners, all etc? Assessment as to whether the level of a risk is high, medium, low. This takes into account both the likelihood of it happening, as well as the possible impact if it did.
2 Control measures to reduce/eliminate risk: What will you need to do, or ensure others will do, in order to reduce that risk? Monitoring and review: How do you know if what you have said is working, or is thorough enough? If it is not working, it will need to be amended, or maybe there is a better solution. Procedures Our Director undertakes training and ensure our staff and volunteers have adequate training in health and safety matters. Risk assessments are carried out in the following ways: - Dynamic risk assessments by staff for activities and areas. Dynamic risk assessments are carried out during the day that aim to dynamically manage the safety of children and adults as new risks are presented and these may not be previously recorded in written risk assessments. Dynamic risk assessments can identify risks that could be formalised using a risk assessment form. Dynamic risk assessments may not require formalising in writing and this is at the judgement of the Kindergarten Manager and staff. - written risk assessments for activities and areas using a risk assessment form - written risk assessments for people (e.g. staff) using a risk assessment form - written risk assessments for other relevant topics e.g. wind speeds using an appropriate format - written risk management zoning of areas around the site where enhanced vigilance is applied by staff depending on the colour of the zone. Enhanced vigilance is at the discretion of the Kindergarten Manager and may include moving of children, visual spotting of children and regular counts, increased ratios, instructions to children, high visibility jackets and other measures. Zones include the following: o green: low risk (e.g. indoors, core zone) o green/amber: between low and medium risk that may change due to timings during the day o amber: medium risk (e.g. other areas on site) o amber/red: between medium and high risk that may change due to timings during the day o red: high risk (e.g. areas open to the public, vehicles, other hazards) Our risk assessment process covers adults and children and includes: - determining where it is helpful to make some written risk assessments in relation to specific issues, to inform staff practice, and to demonstrate how we are managing risks if asked by parents and/or carers and inspectors; - checking for and noting hazards and risks indoors and outside, in relation to our premises and activities;
3 - assessing the level of risk and who might be affected; - deciding which areas need attention; and - developing an action plan that specifies the action required, the time-scales for action, the person responsible for the action and any funding required. Where more than five staff and volunteers are employed, the risk assessment is written and is reviewed regularly. We maintain lists of health and safety issues where appropriate, which are checked daily before the session begins, as well as those that are checked on a weekly and termly basis when a full risk assessment is carried out. Our Director ensures that checks, such as electricity and gas safety checks, and any necessary work to the setting premises are carried out annually (or as appropriate) and records are kept. Our Director ensures that staff members carry out risk assessments that include relevant aspects of fire safety, food safety for all areas of the premises. Our Director ensures that staff members carry out risk assessments for work practice including: - changing children; - preparation and serving of food/drink for children; - children with allergies; - cooking activities with children; - supervising outdoor play and indoor/outdoor climbing equipment; - putting babies or young children to sleep; - assessment, use and storage of equipment for disabled children; - the use and storage of substances which may be hazardous to health, such as cleaning chemicals; - visitors to the setting who are bring equipment or animals as part of children s learning experiences; and - following any incidents involving threats against staff or volunteers. Our Director ensures that staff members carry out risk assessments for off-site activities if required, including: - children s outings; - forest schools; - home visits; and - other off-site duties such as attending meetings, banking etc. Legal framework Management of Health and Safety at Work Regulations (1999)
