This is a safeguarding policy of a small organisation that facilitates, convenes, and runs trainings. It’s aim is to prevent harm and to empower the person who has experienced harm, avoiding punitive ways of addressing harm and limiting contact with state institutions, where possible, due to the harm these institutions themselves often cause, particularly in marginalised communities.

A policy challenging the ways in which discrimination against parents and carers is still the norm in most workplaces. Includes: maternity leave and pay; paternity / second parent leave & pay; shared parental leave & pay; and adoption leave & pay.

This policy lines out how we want to build equity into our recruitment processes as we realise that making recruitment a more equitable working method will allow more people from racialised backgrounds and people with disabilities to work in our organisation.

A socially-just pay policy, including adjustments for: time worked; dependents; no recourse to public funds; experience of marginalisation; city living; and disability. It also includes adjustments for freelance pay; a process for implementation; an emergency pay system; and an emergency fund for workers.

In recognition of the gravity of the climate emergency, the PTC will donate up to 6 days leave per year (pro rated depending on your working hours) to every employee to spend on direct action – e.g. attending or preparing for demonstrations or other related voluntary activity.

This policy includes: how decisions are made in a small team, the principles that underpin them, which decisions can be made by whom, and what steps will be taken to support more equitable involvement in decisions. It is based on consensus and mandate decision-making mechanisms.
