Hi there,

I am looking for any information that anyone may have regarding health and safety arrangements that apply to trusts. Recently the local authority I worked for decided to allow its Leisure services to become a charitable trust who I now work for. I would be interested in how other trusts -

1. Are structured with regards to health and safety

2. Manage health and safety, is it through the safety policy or other system?

3. Assess training needs of its employees and deliver that training

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks

Joe

The Trust is presumably now the 'employer' of all Lesure Services staff. It must prepare a policy which must include the 'organisation' and 'arrangements' for implementing it. I think Policy should be starting point. I never cease to be amazed that H&S Policies usually only get thought about in such situation several month after the Trust is established rather than being considered as an integral part of its establishment.
