While everyone in an organisation plays a part in creating a culturally safe environment, it is a good idea for people with key roles to read this document. These people might include:
- heads of organisations or whoever is ultimately responsible for ensuring compliance with the Child Safe Standards, who may be the CEO, club president, secretary or board members
- anyone who is interacting with children and young people and is responsible for their safety and wellbeing
- staff and volunteers directly involved in child safety and wellbeing, such as your organisation’s child safety officer
- learning and development staff.
