3 Health & Safety Procedures at the John Warner Sports Centre

Now that you have notes from Tanya's talk about the procedures they use at the John warner Sports Centre, you should write these up in as much detail as possible.



You should pay particular attention to how the procedures are reviewed and assessed in order to reach the merit/distinction levels.



To hear a recording of the talk, click on the link below:







The 4 procedures that you should look at are:
Normal Operating Procedures (NOP)
Emergency Operating Procedures (EOP)
Swimming Pool Procedures
Fire Procedures


In order to achieve the higher marks in this task, you must explain the procedures in great detail, explain how the systems are reviewed by the sports centre and suggest alternative methods to improve current systems or how the procedures are reviewed.


Finally, I have scanned 2 of the COSHH forms they have for the soap in the toilets and for the chlorine they use in the pool:

Reading for this unit can be accessed in the following location:

W:\Physical Education\BTEC Sport\6 Form BTEC - Level 3\Single - Subsidiary Diploma\Unit 3 - Assessing Risk in Sport

You have been given the details of 9 different legislative factors that impact upon health and safety in sport. You must pick 4 to describe, compare and contrast. Try to choose those which you feel have a bigger impact on sport and use the following subtitiles to structure your writing on your blog entry:

• Name of Legislation
• Description of Legislation (when, why, whom, key features)
• Impact on Sport (consider the impact in schools i.e. PE lessons or in a sports centre)
• Case Study (a case study that demonstrates a link to sport will help you to achieve a 'merit')

Here is an example of what to write for the C.O.S.H.H. legislation:


Do not attempt M1 yet. We have the legal factors, and regulatory bodies to cover first.

Year 12 - Assessing Risk in Sport - Getting a Merit

To get a merit for this task you must:

M1: compare and contrast the influences of legislation, legal factors and regulatory bodies on health and safety in sport

 

To do this I have created the following scenario:

 

You are the manager at the John Warner Sports Centre and you have arranged to meet all of the staff including:

• lifeguards
• cleaners
• receptionist
• cafeteria staff
• coaches

After a number of incidents/accidents in the local area, you are meeting with your staff to compare and contrast the impact of the legislation and legal factors on their day to day duties. Some roles may have a great impact others may not be affected at all. It is up to you to explain to them which they need to take note of and why.

Legal Factors and Regulatory Bodies
