ASSESSMENT TASK 14 - Accident Prevention?

Post by lclairexo » Wed Sep 06, 2017 10:59 am

14.1 LIST FOUR BASIC PRINCIPLES OF ACCIDENT PREVENTION THAT CAN BE APPLIED TO AN EARLY CHILDHOOD SETTING?

• Active and Positive Supervision

• Safe Space Arrangement

• Develop mentally Appropriate Programming and Activities
• Preventive Policies and Procedures 


Is this the appropriate information? I'm having trouble finding other principles relevant in the learner guide.

Could it be:

Compliance with legislative requirements

Identifying the Hazard - involves recognising things which may cause injury or harm to the health of a person, for instance, flammable material, ignition sources or unguarded machinery.

Assessing the Risk - involves looking at the possibility of injury or harm occurring to a person if exposed to a hazard.

Controlling the Risk - by introducing measures to eliminate or reduce the risk of a person being exposed to a hazard.
