What is the status of a volunteer?
Whilst volunteers may have some valuable experience, their role is ancillary rather than supervisory.
Hours and duties
Volunteers are given a day off each week.
Their hours depend upon the nature of their work.
Although volunteers may be given specific duties, they are expected to be flexible and, when required, undertake other duties.
Personal welfare
A member of staff responsible for volunteer welfare greets volunteers upon arrival, and helps them to settle in.
