Document background
The Risk Assessment Childcare document serves as a crucial tool for childcare facilities operating in Hong Kong to identify, assess, and mitigate potential risks in their operations. It is required under Hong Kong's Child Care Services Ordinance (Cap. 243) and associated regulations, serving as evidence of due diligence in maintaining safety standards. This document should be prepared before facility operation commencement and updated annually or when significant changes occur. It encompasses all aspects of childcare operations, from physical facility safety to child supervision protocols, incorporating specific requirements from Hong Kong's regulatory framework. The assessment helps facilities maintain their licensing requirements while providing a safe environment for children and staff.
