Employment contract template

This employment contract aims to enshrine a more equitable relationship between employee and employer and is designed to make it easy and accessible to understand the key elements of employment with us.

Reparative rest leave

Our rest policy acknowledges that due to structural inequalities in the cultural sector, not everyone experiences work in the same way. It offers up to three additional days of paid rest per year for staff members who experience inequality.

Safeguarding policy & procedure

A radical approach to safeguarding that questions the definition of "vulnerable" and instead places all people we work with at the heart of the policy holistically. We propose a shared opportunity to use non-punitive procedures, ask for consent, offer a matrix to attempt to diffuse conflict or avoid involving external agencies and supporting both victim and perpetuator.

New child leave policy

We aim to ensure anyone who becomes responsible for a child has paid time off devoted to this huge new responsibility.

Induction checklist

An adaptable induction process focused on wellbeing and support, as well as practical, legal and technical tasks.

Safeguarding policy & procedure

A policy which aims to create environments that prevent safeguarding issues from arising, and outlines how to respond to incidents if they occur. It applies to: children, adults at risk of harm, staff members, board members, and others.
