Safeguarding
As an organisation often helping vulnerable people, we appreciate how important it is to protect adults and children's rights to live in safety, free from abuse and neglect. Our safeguarding polices ensure that all of our staff are trained to identify adults and children at risk, and what action to consider and/or take depending on the circumstances.
Service User Policy
At Money Advice Hub, we believe that our clients have a right to be heard, understood and respected. We also believe that our staff have the right to work in a safe environment, free from any abuse or harm caused by others.
We therefore expect all clients to treat our staff with courtesy and respect at all times. This applies to all means of communication, such as verbal, in person and written. In a small number of cases the actions of some clients become unacceptable because they involve abuse of our staff and/or our processes.
On the above basis, we have published an 'Unacceptable Client Behaviour' Policy, you can read the policy here.
