This is a subject of much derision these days. Mostly because of the bureaucracy associated with it. While talking to volunteers and staff, one of my obligations is that we continue to consult and raise the matter of safety.
Our church has a rigorous safety program. It includes police checking of volunteers that work with minors or vulnerable people, OHS committees, regulatory compliance schedules for maintainence of safety equipment, audits, medical forms for people in our youth and children's programs, emergency information for staff and volunteers - a huge undertaking.
We take very seriously our task to look after those attending our corps programs and continue to seek everyone's support in this regard.
