This policy aims to make working at Tripod a viable & sustainable choice for a wider range of workers than would otherwise be possible. It is part of an ongoing inquiry & development process to define how we want to financially support ourselves to do this work in a way that values the work we do & is a reflection of Tripod’s values & purpose.

A policy for a mid-sized organisation to identify individual and collective responsibilities for staff taking time off, in a way that both enables staff to take time away, and for it to avoid negatively impacting on staff who are still working. Includes link to a template for work handover planning.

A values based policy aimed at supporting staff health and wellbeing based on years of adapting and learning to shape our practice which we have now formalised into a policy.

A staff review process aiming to: 1) review progress and priorities, 2) explore and resolve any problems in these areas, 3) discuss the employee’s potential and future training needs, 4) set targets for future work and training if relevant. Staff take it in turns to review each other.

An agenda for a regular team meeting which aims to surface experiences of being in the group, and create a space to discuss tensions and differences.

This policy is our framework when deciding to accept funding from a certain source. It lays out who we want and do not want as funders, and the due diligence process for new funders.
