Every organisation has a responsibility to keep children and young people safe.

This webinar will focus on National Principle 5 covering practical elements on recruitment, the role of screening, employee inductions and ongoing staff support, and include a range of guest speakers.

Child safe organisations create cultures where the safety and wellbeing of children and young people is prioritised and actions are taken to identify risks and protect them from harm, including from sexual abuse.

The National Principles for Child Safe Organisations (National Principles) provide a framework to guide organisations in developing child safe cultures and practices, including the ability to identify risks and take agreed actions to prevent, respond to and report child abuse.

The WA Government is committed to supporting the development of safe organisations for children and young people and is working to develop an independent oversight system that includes monitoring and enforcement of the National Principles.

Join us to learn more about “National Principle 5: People working with children and young people are suitable and supported to reflect child safety and wellbeing values in practice”, and how your organisation can implement key practices.
