Safe behaviours and boundaries

How do we use our Code of Conduct as a tool to address safe professional boundaries?
The safeguarding Code of Conduct is an organisation's most reliable tool to define expectations when interacting with children and young people. Yet so often we have trouble identifying, reacting, responding and reporting breaches of safe professional boundaries, and often only take action when the risk level is high.
What will we learn?
This session discusses the need for recognising low level breaches, behaviours that may indicate red flags, the risks involved within a culture that accepts bystander behaviour, and how to ensure that the safeguarding Code of Conduct is more than just an induction item.

National Principles addressed: 1, 5, 7, 10 (Victorian Child Safe Standards 2, 6, 8, 11)
Target audience: All organisational representatives.
