 Explain agreed ways of working with employer.

Policies and procedures are “agreed ways of working” that set out how your employer requires you to work. They help you to provide a good quality service working within the legal framework and most importantly aim to keep you and the people you care for safe from harm. You are being paid to do a job for your employer. If you do not follow their agreed ways of working, you could cause harm to yourself or others and you could find yourself subject to disciplinary procedures which could lead to dismissal or even prosecution if you break the law.A
