Child Protection Policy

Whaiora is committed to the prevention of child abuse and to the protection of children and young people.

Our Child Protection Policy provides us with a framework to identify and manage actual and or suspected child abuse and neglect.

The child or young person’s safety is paramount. It is our primary consideration when abuse or neglect of a child/young person is suspected and alleged.

Our policy applies to actions by management and employees, including students and contractors for Whaiora.
