Code of Conduct
Action needed
- All groups should have a code of conduct for staff, volunteers and helpers that identifies clearly what is acceptable and unacceptable behaviour in relation to children
- Groups with paid staff and volunteers should have a formal procedure for dealing with breaches of this code of conduct
- Groups with volunteers or helpers should have a process in place for dealing with individuals that harm or put children at risk so that the group can comply with the requirements of the Protection of Children (Scotland) Act 2003.
