Volunteers' rights

You do not have a contract of employment as a volunteer, so you do not have the same rights as an employee or worker.

You will usually be given a volunteer agreement that explains:

  • the level of supervision and support you바카라 사이트™ll get
  • what training you바카라 사이트™ll get
  • whether you바카라 사이트™re covered under the organisation바카라 사이트™s employer or public liability insurance
