PARENT/GUARDIAN CODE OF CONDUCT

The purpose of the Parent/Guardian Code of Conduct is to provide a mutual understanding regarding conduct expectations. BGC Battlefords staff are committed to providing a caring and supportive environment for all families by acting with integrity and holding themselves to the highest standard of ethical conduct. We recognize the importance and value of a mutually supportive and respectful relationship between the staff and parents/guardians. Parents/guardians play an important role by supporting the efforts of the staff in maintaining a safe environment when they follow protocols.

BGCB prohibits the following behaviors:

• Abuse and harassment of any kind towards staff and volunteers will not be tolerated.

• Unpaid fees for services. Suitable arrangements must be mutually agreed upon.

• Unsatisfactory attempt to resolve an issue using the conflict resolution steps.

• A participating child/youth’s inappropriate behaviors which cause a risk to themself and other participants on a continual basis, even after supportive care plan meetings with Management.

• Parents/guardians that choose to post grievances and criticism publicly on social media that disparages the reputation of BGCB or its employees and have not sought direct communication with the Executive Director or Director of Programs for clarity and/or conflict resolution.

Anyone not respecting the above guidelines may be suspended from program registration and/or asked to leave BGCB premises and/or have services terminated. In less severe situations, where remediation is viable, a warning will be provided, either verbally or in writing.

If BGCB plans to terminate service, a phone call will be made to the family by either the Director of Programs or the Executive Director. Additionally, a detailed note regarding the termination will be placed in the Membership File.

PARTICIPANT CODE OF CONDUCT

This Participant Code of Conduct has been crafted by BGC Battlefords to ensure the safety and enjoyment of all participants at our programs. It balances the safety of participants, staff, and volunteers with respect for our participants and the desire to see everyone succeed while having fun. It is our expectation that all children and youth will follow these guidelines, as will our staff and volunteers.

Participant Code of Conduct

• Show respect for others:

• No running indoors

• Maintain a low volume indoors

• No name calling, profanity, or aggressive language

• No shoving, pushing, hitting, fighting, or any other aggressive physical contact

• Ensure you have the consent of other participants before touching them in any way (including hugs, patting, etc.)

• Be kind and polite

• Join in on the day’s activity/program

• Show respect for Club staff and volunteers:

• Always listen to staff

• Always get permission to leave the group before leaving (let them know if you need to use the washroom, get a drink, etc.)

• Show respect for the facility and equipment:

• Always ask permission before going into another room

• Always ask permission before taking out equipment or supplies

• Take part in the clean-up of toys, supplies, equipment, etc.

• Show respect for yourself:

• Ask questions

• Speak out when you have an idea

• Let staff know if you’re not having fun

Bullying and Harrasment

BGC Battlefords has a zero tolerance for bullying, and staff will act accordingly when they believe that this is taking place. Bullying and Harassment are defined as any inappropriate conduct, comment or behaviour that intimidates, demeans, humiliates or embarrasses a person, and that a reasonable person would know it unwelcome. It may be a single incident, or continue over time, typically between individuals with an imbalance of power.

Suspension

The following behaviours may result in the immediate suspension of a participant. Depending on the severity of the behaviour or repeat offences, the suspension may, at Club’s discretion, last a day, week, or the remainder of the program year.

• Derogatory comments regarding someone’s race, religion, sexual orientation, or gender identity.

• Endangering the health or safety of a participant and/or staff, members, and volunteers.

• Stealing or willfully damaging Club or personal property

• Leaving the program without permission

Other infractions of the Participant Code of Conduct may also, over time, lead to the suspension or dismissal of participants. Parents/guardians of children will be made aware of these infractions and asked to provide assistance in finding solutions before suspension or dismissal are considered.

Commitments

We commit to teaching these guidelines to all participants and to enforcing them fairly. We ask that parents help us by reinforcing these expectations with their children and by helping their children understand the importance of showing respect to others, the organization, and themselves.
