Developing Enhanced Safety Plans and Codes of Conduct:
A Guide to Safety Charter Requirements for Child Care Centres

In June 2008, Manitoba passed The Child Care Safety Charter, the first comprehensive legislation of its kind in Canada. Under the Safety Charter, early learning and child care centres have to develop safety plans and codes of conduct. These requirements strengthen early learning and child care (ELCC) in Manitoba by enhancing safety and positive learning environments.

This resource guide will help centre directors, staff and board members to understand and meet the requirements for developing enhanced safety plans and codes of conduct under the Safety Charter.
