<p>The health and safety of all those who work for, or visit the House, continues
to be a key priority of the House of Commons Commission. This has included the creation
of a safety and security at work module, covering health and safety and the routes
to raise concerns, mandatory training which all Parliamentary staff are required to
complete on an annual basis.</p><p>Staff are actively encouraged to report safety
queries or concerns through their line manager, safety coordinator, a trade union
safety representative or one of the safety advisers in the Parliamentary Safety Team.</p><p>All
passholders on the estate are expected to follow the behaviour code, which are designed
to protect and support all those on the estate. Should a member of staff have concerns
that this would not be the case a fully independent process exists for raising safety
concerns through the whistleblowing policy.</p><p> </p>
