Employment responsibilities and rights

Employment rights and responsibilities will be delivered and assessed as part of the apprenticeship/modern apprenticeship induction process.  Skills for Security Ltd have produced a workbook that apprentices may use to record information and which assesses their level of knowledge relating to:

 

·         the rights and responsibilities of workers (including diversity, harassment, victimisation legislation etc);

·         the industry bodies, disciplinary and grievance policies and procedures

·         Health and Safety policies and procedures

 

Alternatively, providers may use their own procedures provided that they comply with the national minimum requirements. A record of the apprentice’s achievement in this aspect of the apprenticeship/modern apprenticeship, signed by a senior manager of the provider organisation must be submitted to Skills for Security for certification purposes.

 

This component of the framework meets the national minimum requirements.
