Mae OHSAS 18001:2007 yn safon wedi’i gydnabod ledled y byd sy’n gosod y gofynion lleiaf posib ar gyfer ymarfer gorau Iechyd Galwedigaethol a Rheoli Diogelwch yn y gweithle. Mae’n ymdrin â meysydd fel Asesu Risg, Rheoli Peryglon, Perfformiad a Monitro, Hyfforddiant a pharodrwydd mewn argyfwng.
Mae Hft yn ystyried Iechyd a Diogelwch o ddifri. Rydym wedi ein hasesu gan y Grŵp Ardystio ac wedi’u hardystio fel eu bod yn cydymffurfio gyda gofynion y safon.

Er bod Cyber Essentials yn ddatganiad cydymffurfio hunan-ardystiedig, mae Cyber Essentials Plus yn wiriad mwy manwl gywir o ddiogelwch cyber mudiad. Mae’n rhaid i arbenigwr diogelwch annibynnol gynnal y gwiriad.
Mae’r ardystiad hwn yn archwilio ymarfer da a safonau yn y meysydd canlynol:
Mae’r achrediad hwn yn brawf o ymroddiad parhaus Hft i ddiogelu eu gwybodaeth.
Hft has achieved the Cyber Essentials Plus accreditation.
Cyber Essentials is a government-backed scheme that requires an organisation to prove that it is secure against common cyber attacks. Although Cyber Essentials is a self-certified statement of conformity, Cyber Essentials Plus is a more rigorous verification of an organisation’s cyber security, that requires verification to be carried out by an independent security specialist.
The certification examines good practice and standards in the following areas:
This accreditation reflects Hft’s ongoing commitment to information security.

It’s our Support Workers’ dedication to ensuring that the people we support have the opportunity to live the best lives possible that has made Hft the highly rated charity that it is today. Just as we have campaigned to see people employed in learning disability services continue to be paid fairly for the exceptional work they do, so too are we working to ensure that someone’s gender does not affect the wage they receive. So we are pleased to publish our Hft Gender Pay Gap Report for 2019.

Mae’r prosiect ENTELIS yn gyfuniad o â naw partner o bob cwr o’r Undeb Ewropeaidd ac un partner o’r Unol Daleithiau. Eu nod ydy mynd i’r afael â rhai o’r trafferthion, ynghlwm â manteisio ar dechnoleg gynorthwyol a thechnolegau gwybodaeth a chyfathrebu, y mae sawl pobl gydag anableddau a’r henoed yn eu hwynebu. Bu i fudiadau eraill ymuno â’r consortiwm fel Partneriaid Cysylltiol.
Nod ENTELIS ydy lleihau’r gwahaniad digidol drwy ddatblygu rhwydwaith cynaliadwy o fudiadau sy’n cydweithio i ddatblygu strategaethau a pholisïau a fydd yn gofalu fod pobl o bob oedran, gyda neu heb anableddau, fanteisio ar ac elwa o dechnoleg.
Mae Hft yn Bartner Cysylltiol ar ran ENTELIS. Rydym yn cynnig gwybodaeth ac arbenigedd yn ymwneud â Thechnoleg Bersonol a sut mae modd ei roi ar waith gyda gwahanol grwpiau.
The ENTELIS project brings together nine partners from across the European Union plus one partner from the United States, with the goal of addressing some of the issues around accessing assistive technology and information & communication technologies that are experienced by many people with disabilities and the elderly. Other organisations have joined the consortium as Associate Partners.
ENTELIS aims to reduce this digital divide by developing a sustainable network of organisations that collaborate in the development of strategies and policies which will help ensure that people of all ages, with or without disabilities can access and benefit from technology.
Hft is an Associate Partner in ENTELIS. We provide knowledge and expertise in Personalised Technology and how this can be applied to different groups.
Mae Hft yn aelod sefydlu o Learning Disability Voices, clymblaid o elusennau, mudiadau nid er elw a chwmnïau annibynnol sy’n cynnig gwasanaethau i bobl ag anawsterau dysgu ym Mhrydain. Gyda’i gilydd, mae’r mudiadau hyn yn cynrychioli 20% o wasanaethau’r sector gyfan.
Yn y blynyddoedd diweddar, bu’n rhaid i’r sector ymdopi gyda thoriadau llywodraeth leol mwyfwy niweidiol. O ganlyniad, roedd yn rhaid i’r sector weithredu’n effeithlon er mwyn cadw’r costau’n sefydlog. Fodd bynnag, gan y cawn ni’n talu am yr oriau gofal rydym yn eu cynnig, a gan ein bod yn cefnogi pobl fregus sy’n aml angen cefnogaeth 24 awr gan un neu fwy o ofalwyr i ofalu ein bod yn bodloni’u hanghenion, nid oes modd inni leihau staff y rheng flaen er mwyn gostwng y costau ymhellach.
Cafodd Learning Disability Voices ei lansio er mwyn ymateb i’r her cyllid a’u nod ydy hyrwyddo’r sector anawsterau dysgu a gwthio i greu newidiadau hanfodol i bolisïau er mwyn gofalu dyfodol cynaliadwy i ofal o safon i bobl gydag anawsterau dysgu.
Hft is a founder member of Learning Disability Voices, a coalition of charities, not-for-profits, and independent companies that provide learning disability services in the UK, and that together represent 20% of the total sector provision.
In recent years the sector has had to cope with increasingly damaging local government cuts and has been forced to drive operational efficiencies to keep fees static. However, as we are paid for the hours of care we deliver, and as we support vulnerable people who often require 24-hour support delivered by one or more carers to ensure that their needs are met, we cannot reduce frontline staffing to cut costs further.
Learning Disability Voices was launched in response to the funding challenge this represents and exists to champion the learning disability sector and push for crucial policy changes to ensure a sustainable future for quality learning disability care.
Mae Hft yn aelod o European Association of Service Providers for Persons with Disabilities (EASPD), sef mudiad ymbarél Ewropeaidd sy’n cynrychioli dros 15,000 o wasanaethau cefnogi ar gyfer pobl gydag anableddau ledled Ewrop.

Mae Sarah Weston, Rheolwr Arloesedd Hft yn gyd-gadeirydd ar y grŵp Buddiant.

Nod TSA ydy cefnogi datblygiad yn y diwydiant gwasanaethau Gofal trwy Gymorth Technoleg drwy ddatblygu strategaethau, arloesedd, dewisiadau a safonau er mwyn i bobl fyw’n fwy annibynnol a gwella ansawdd eu bywyd.
