How Safeguarding Courses Will Benefit Your Company
Safeguarding training is the perfect way to ensure that your team has the skills that they need in order to be able to provide a service that protects everyone in your workplace.
1. Learn who might be vulnerable
If you haven’t ever undergone safeguarding training, it can be very difficult to distinguish which individuals within your company may be at additional risk of mental or physical abuse or neglect. Safeguarding training gives a thorough overview of the different ways in which particular individuals might be vulnerable.
2. Recognising tell-tale signs of abuse and neglect
Moving directly on from learning about which young people are at an increased risk of being vulnerable, safeguarding training also covers the tell-tale signs of abuse and neglect, enabling your staff to actively monitor the young people in your care, being consciously aware of their wellbeing.
3. Improve your team’s communication ability
The ability to communicate with the children and young people in your care about their needs and well-being lays at the core of safeguarding. Therefore, safeguarding training has a serious focus on the different ways in which staff can talk to children and young people about abuse and neglect.
4. Increase trust in your institution
Enforcing safeguarding training for all staff members shows to both parents and stakeholders that your organisation takes best practice very seriously. Additionally, it can encourage better communication between staff and volunteers and parents, as parents will be able to ask staff members questions related to safeguarding, knowing that they’ve undergone a professional-level certification in the subject.
5. Enable staff to record and report abuse and neglect appropriately
As an educator, discovering that there’s been an incident or abuse and/or neglect among the children or young people in your care can be very distressing. Safeguarding training breaks down the appropriate courses of action to take, empowering your staff by giving them the skills and knowledge they need in order to appropriately report abuse and neglect.
