In The Footsteps and Take Us Touring recognises this it has a duty of care for its 'employees'
and their customers. To that end, we have written and documented appropriate health & safety
procedures.
The first level of this documentation is our Health & Safety Policy Statement
The second level of document are their health & safety procedures. These are: -
Health & Safety Review
Meeting
Accident Incident
Reporting
Procedure
Generic Risk
Assessments
As part of the Generic Risk Assessments procedure they have carried out a series of generic risk
assessments identifying potential hassards and the control measures and/or precautions that should be
followed to minimise those risks. These Generic Risk Assessments form the third level of their
documentation and these are: -
GRA001 - All Tours
GRA002 - Small Group Tours
GRA003 - Large Group Tours
GRA004 - Accommodation
GRA005 - Battlefield Tours
To ensure that all 'employees' are able to access the forms required to comply with these
procedures and the generic risk assessment they are also published and available electronically. These
forms are: -
Incident Report Form
GRA002A - Vehicle Compliance

GRA004A - Hotel
Accommodation Enquiry Form
We ensure that all of our employees are adequately trained and competent to do their work. Each employee
is given a health and safety induction and where appropriate provided with job specific training
sufficient to fulfil their role. To ensure that our team of Tour Managers and Guides receive an
appropriate Health & Safety Induction, we issue each of them a Health & Safety Induction
Booklet.
