This document sets out the RCN Group’s approach to recognising and reporting safeguarding concerns.  It seeks to assist those employed by or otherwise working on behalf of the Group (this includes, for example, temporary agency workers and off-payroll workers, but does not include accredited representatives) to understand their part in, and to provide guidance and signposting on, safeguarding. This is to ensure that the Group plays a full role in protecting the children, young people and adults in need who come into contact with it.  It is published on the RCN Group intranet to ensure it is available to all who work for and on behalf of the Group. It is also available on the RCN, RCNi and RCN Foundation websites so that children and adults in need, as well as parents and carers, know how to voice their concerns and get help in relation to safeguarding issues – this is set out on page 10.
