The trainer in the volunteering field within Children Services in City of Cardiff county council and Vale of Glamorgan County council must have a thorough understanding of statute law, regulations, and codes of practice relevant to their role. This includes knowledge of legislative requirements established by Acts of Parliament and/or Welsh Assembly Government, which are enforceable through the courts. Legislation that should be considered during training sessions includes the Health and Safety at Work Act 1974, Data Protection Act 1998, Equality Act 2010, Children’s Act 1989, and Children’s Act 2004.
The Health and Safety at Work Act 1974 is the primary legislation governing workplace health, safety, and welfare enforcement in the UK. The Data Protection Act 1998 governs the protection of personal data processed and stored in the UK. It outlines procedures for organizations to comply with individual rights and aligns with Euro
...pean laws implemented earlier.
The Equality Act 2010 simplifies and strengthens various laws regarding age, disability, gender reassignment, marriage/civil partnership, race, faith/belief sex,and sexual orientation. It consolidates current laws into one comprehensive piece of legislation while enhancing effectiveness in certain areas. The new act may offer increased protection depending on individual circumstances.
The Youth Offending Service educates its Youth Volunteers about the laws that led to its establishment and their roles as volunteers.The text explains the importance of familiarizing individuals with various acts, such as the Crime and Disorder Act 1998, Youth Justice and Criminal Evidence Act 1999, Criminal Justice and Immigration Act 2008, Legal Aid, Sentencing and Punishment of Offender Act 2012. It states that in a specific sector (presumably related to the County Council), a Code of Practice is set by the council to
outline expected behavior for staff members or volunteers representing that council. This code is based on legislation passed by the UK Parliament or Welsh Government and serves as a guide for employees and representatives. A statutory codification refers to a Parliament-approved Code of Practice that can be used as evidence in legal actions. It emphasizes the need to consider these statutory laws and Codes of Practice when making demands, planning developments, and reviewing future preparations.
