Regulated businesses and employers of people in regulated employment-which includes sporting organisations  are now required by law to have an annual risk management strategy in place by mid-January 2006. The Commission offers information and training to raise awareness of this new legislation, including a risk management strategy framework to guide compliance.

Our free half-day workshop includes straightforward information, scenarios, group discussion and a practical resource package.
Participants are able to assess their current practices and begin planning to address possible gaps. The workshop is especially relevant for people involved in management, recruitment, training and/or policy development in their organisation.

Topics covered by the training and resource package include:
* legislation
* child abuse, and child protection strategies
* liability and duty of care
* risk management and employment screening
* action planning.
