The Volunteer Induction Pack

• The Application Form
  Do you have an application form for volunteer workers, will you seek references?
• Disclosure (if required)
  When will this be provided to the volunteer before or after their training? CRBS does free disclosure checks on volunteers for voluntary organisations.
• Job Description
  Is the volunteer sure of the role he/she will play within your organisation? Is the volunteer clear on his/her responsibilities and the skills and strengths required to be successful in their role?
• Training
  Will you provide a specific training program or will the volunteer be provided with supervised ‘on the job’ training? How will this be delivered and recorded?
• Timesheets / Expense Sheets
  Does the volunteer understand how to use these, and the time scales in which they must be completed?
• Organisational Structure
  The volunteer will need an understanding of the hierarchy of the organisation and where their line manager fits in to this structure.
• Feedback / Recording Sheets
  Does the volunteer work on a one-to-one basis with a client, is a record of meetings and activities necessary?
• Organisational Promotional Materials
  These will help the volunteer have a good overall picture of the organisation.
