Which of the following is NOT a document that helps establish policies, procedures, and safety implementation strategies?

• A. Aquatic safety plan
• B. In-service template
• C. Emergency action plan
• D. Aquatic staff handbook

Answer: (B)

The key idea is distinguishing documents that codify safety policies and procedures from planning tools used for training. An in-service template is a planning tool for delivering staff training; it guides how a training session is structured, what topics to cover, and how to assess understanding. It doesn’t establish the organization’s actual safety policies, procedures, or incident-response steps. In contrast, an aquatic safety plan, an emergency action plan, and an aquatic staff handbook are formal documents that lay out the policies, procedures, and responsibilities used to implement safety practices. So the not-a-policy document is the in-service template.
