Safer Recruitment

Safer recruitment is about making sure that everyone who works or volunteers with your organisation is suitable for the role and committed to keeping others safe. This includes staff, volunteers, and even trustees and committee members. It means checking backgrounds, skills, and experience to help prevent harm and ensure that those who have contact with vulnerable individuals are trustworthy and safe.

Whether you're recruiting staff for paid roles or bringing in volunteers or trustees, safer recruitment helps protect both your team and the people you support. It’s a key part of creating a safe and supportive environment for everyone involved in your organisation.
