Introduction
Within the guidelines of the South Bank ‘Contract for Lifeguard Services’ the Lifeguard Contractor is responsible for upholding the rules and regulations as an ‘authorised person’. As an authorised person all Lifeguards are to follow the procedures as set below.
Procedure
If and when a breach of the rules and regulations (as designated by the CPS) occurs within the Lifeguards area of responsibility there are three steps which are to be followed.
- Primary Warning
In an appropriate manner a verbal warning is to be given to the person notifying them of the rules and regulations. - Secondary Warning
In an appropriate manner a verbal warning is to be given to the person notifying them of the rules and regulations and that this is their second and final warning and if he/she continues they will receive an exclusion from the ‘Water Areas’. (the Lifeguard is to determine whether this is to be for the duration of the day or a certain time period). - Inform ‘Control’
- ‘What offender has done’ – “Gentlemen has been throwing sand”.
- ‘What you have done’ – “I have informed him of the rules and given him his final warning”.
