Screening and safety
What we expect from every host
- Roles are genuine volunteering: unpaid work of benefit to the community, never a substitute for a paid job.
- Organisations tell volunteers which checks a role needs, such as a Working with Children Check or a police check.
- Every volunteer gets an induction, a named supervisor and a safe place to work.
- Organisations hold appropriate insurance for volunteers and follow work health and safety law.
- Personal information from expressions of interest is used only to follow up that role.
- We can pause or remove any listing that does not meet these expectations.
Read the host organisation terms, the safety and conduct policy and the screening and suitability notice.
What we check
- That the organisation exists and is registered, for example on the ACNC Charity Register or the ABN Lookup
- That the role is genuine volunteering and the description is clear and safe
- That the contact person can act for the organisation
- Which checks the role needs, and that the listing says so
We may call you before the role goes live, and we can ask for changes.
