The Pillars of Safeguarding is a model I developed to help managers, teams and organisations focus upon the key factors that contribute toward positive and proactive teams and safer, more empowering environments.
Through my work and the analysis of safeguarding investigations both in the UK and abroad I have identified a series of reoccurring factors which if left unaddressed or addressed poorly create gaps and weaknesses within teams and organisations. These gaps and weaknesses are those factors which I have found most often lead to poor practice and ultimately abuse. In addition I have found these gaps to contribute to workplace cultures where employees are reluctant to speak up or raise their concerns, further compounding the problem.
By working through each pillar you can ensure that you minimise the risk of abuse within your organisation, and should a situation occur people are more likely to notice and speak up.
A free PDF copy of the model can be obtained via this link or using the button at the bottom of the page. This PDF can be used in your own training programmes, polices and procedures with permission. To discuss how this can happen please contact me.
If you would like support with the implementation of this model or would like me to deliver training to your team using this model please contact me and i'll be happy to assist.
