While on Placement

Inform your Placements Officer of any problems that cannot be resolved at a local level.

Behave appropriately at all times (during, after, in and out of work) acting to enhance the reputation of all parties involved.

Do not give notice to your placements provider without first consulting your Placements Officer.

Before finishing the placement, ensure all requirements of both placement provider and Department have been met.

Take reasonable safety precautions - do not travel alone or on foot if it is dark or late. Carry a mobile phone, indentification and a personal alarm with you. A small, high powered torch is useful. Let someone know your whereabouts.

When travelling it is a good idea to keep only a small amount of cash on you in case of theft, and to carry cash in several different pockets. Don't carry all your important documents together and be vigilant in airports, clubs and crowded places.
