Safety Management
It is the responsibility of sports grounds management to ensure that all safety personnel are trained and competent to undertake both their normal duties and their roles under the management’s emergency and contingency plans.
The Guide to Safety at Sports Grounds advises that stewards working at sports grounds should have or be working towards obtaining a level 2 qualification in spectator safety, that supervisors should have or be working towards a level 3 and safety officers should have or be working towards a level 4.
