Safeguarding Cultures
What is a Safeguarding Culture?
A safeguarding culture is an organisational culture in which a safeguarding mindset underpins everything the organisation SAYS, EXPECTS, DOES and DECIDES. It is made up of the shared commitment of everyone in your organisation to safeguarding and sees safeguarding as a core value in the organisation’s ways of doing things, beliefs and attitudes, relationships, behaviours, and workplace norms.
A safeguarding mindset is a lens that people apply to everything they say, see, expect, do, feel, and decide focussed on the safeguarding risks and achieving positive safeguarding outcomes in any situation.
Someone with a safeguarding mindset is consistently curious about what they see, experience and do and go beyond compliance and a tick-box approach to be sure that things are as safe as they should be.
Safer Employment is a key contributor to a safeguarding culture. Our PRISIM model of safer employment takes you through a 360 approach to safer employment where a safeguarding mindset is embedded in every stage of the employment journey from Planning to Recruitment, to Managing Leavers and Sharing concerns.
