Health and Safety Planning
We have been working alongside a couple of local organisation's to help them develop their end-to-end health and safety plans as they prepare to return to play. To help you with your health and safety planning, you can download templates and examples of these plans below.
Regional Sport Organisation Toolkit
Wellington Hockey Association has produced the following documents as part of their comprehensive Health and Safety response to COVID-19:
- COVID-19 Response Plan
- Risk Assessment and Control Plan
- Contact Tracing Process for Clubs
- Facilities Site Plan
- Coaching Considerations for Alert Level 2
Planning for schools
As schools return and look to resume sport, it's important to have Health & Safety plans for sport at Alert Level 2 in place.
Whitby Collegiate have kindly provided the following example of their Health and Safety planning, and we have created a template version of this for you to download and adapt to your own setting as you see fit.
