Recruitment - Loaned volunteers

Sample Wording

All potential volunteers must go through the volunteer resources department prior to being placed in a program. This step ensures that volunteers are appropriately screened, oriented, trained and placed in the most appropriate area and that their information is recorded for recognition and follow-up purposes.

Why?

If your organization works with volunteers from other organizations or corporate volunteers plan an appropriate screening policy

Always be very clear on the screening criteria; your first priority is the safety of your clients, volunteers and staff

Key issues/procedures

When working with volunteers from another organization consider any previous screening and if this will affect your process?

Avoid making random exceptions as other volunteers will notice
