recruitment policy

The purpose of this policy is:

• To ensure a safe and enjoyable environment by carrying out sound recruitment and selection procedures to appoint coaching staff

• To protect children and young people when volunteers are sought to work with them
• To prevent unsuitable people from working with children and young people
We take responsibility for:

• Ensuring roles within the Morecambe Girls FC are clearly defined

• Collecting information on each applicant in a consistent way

• Scrutinising applications fairly and equitably

• Obtaining identification documents to confirm the identity of each applicant – for example: a passport or driving license providing photo ID

• Meeting with everyone who has applied for the post or offered to volunteer before any decisions about taking them on are made

• Ensuring more than one official is present at all meetings/interviews

• Obtaining at least two references from individuals who are not related to the applicant

• Obtaining Criminal Record Checks (CRCs) from all current and prospective Morecambe Girls FC coaches and volunteers

• Ensuring up to date CRCs are kept on file by the Morecambe Girls FC at all times

Once in post we will ensure that:

• New volunteers are made aware of and sign up to the club’s Safeguarding Children policy and procedures, best practice guidelines and codes of conduct

• They attend The FA’s Safeguarding Children Workshop

• A period of supervision/observation or mentoring is introduced to support the new volunteer
