It is possible that you, as an employer, may be required to provide a health and safety checklist, risk assessment and/or the Public Liability Insurance policy number to the placement organiser (e.g. school, supported employment agency).\nBefore the placement starts, complete a young person risk assessment (Appendix – 1)\nOn the first day\nThe student can be inducted by an experienced member of staff, and should work through their work experience induction booklet.\nWelcome.\nDiscuss what your organisation/business does and what your role/department does.\nDiscuss the students interests and motivation for the placement. This will help you tailor their experience.\nDiscuss working hours, breaks, clothing, and jewellery requirements.\nDiscuss the fire procedure, making sure the student knows what to do in the event of a fire (Use the H&S guide within the induction booklet)\nDiscuss the importance of Confidentiality and Data Protection. Ask them to read the Code of Conduct policy.\nShow the student around the department, discussing the daily routines of staff.\nStart discussing the induction pack and signing each relevant section.\nAnswer any questions.\n\u000f\nDuring the placement – Do’s and Don’ts\nDo\nComplete the Induction pack.\nProvide the student with a photo copy of induction when completed. This could be used as evidence for the students course work.\nInclude the student in the daily routines – getting the post, setting up a room for meeting. Although the students are restricted in certain areas there are plenty of activities they can be involved with – be creative.\nVary work on a day to day bases.\nGet them to work in another department – learn more about the organisation.\nCheck to see if any internal activates are running during the placement – link the student in to join in planned activates.\nShow the student where the information is kept.\nAt quieter times during the day encourage the student to spend some time reading the information and maybe help them plan an activity to complete with you.\nMake it a memorable experience for the student.\nDon’ts\nLeave Student to sit in the corner.\nJust give filing/photocopying to complete.\nGet annoyed if they make a mistake; encourage them to learn from the mistake.\nDiscuss internal politics with placement.\nLeave sensitive information lying around.\nYoung Person Risk Assessment\nThis document is a young person risk assessment template; and is used to assess health and safety hazards associated with a young person on a work placement.\nThis document is used to discover the hazards associated with a particular job role and the young person (things that have the potential to harm someone), the potential severity of those hazards, and work out what the risk is. The risk assessment then looks at how we can eliminate the risk or if this is not possible, reduce it and control it. Risk assessments should ideally be carried out in conjunction with those exposed to the risk(s) or as a minimum discussed with such persons.\nIn order to complete this assessment successfully, you should refer first to the following HSE guidance.
