Volunteer Posting Policy

The Career Development Centre has guidelines for organizations recruiting volunteers at Laurier. Review these guidelines prior to positing a position.

• Volunteer opportunities should be with or in support of non-profit, charitable and publicly-funded organizations.
• Volunteer postings need to outline the time commitment (e.g. one-time event, three to six months, minimum one-year commitment, etc.).
• Organizations need to provide appropriate training volunteers, including health and safety.
• Volunteers will not be used to replace another employee's job in the organization.
• All volunteer postings are subject to review prior to being posted to students. Employers are notified via email when the posting is approved.
• Any costs incurred by volunteers must be outlined in the position description.

• Review and assess the performance of volunteers.
• Provide volunteers with tasks that are appropriate to their skills, abilities and interests.
• Provide information about the organization including policies and procedures.
• Provide a safe and inclusive environment.
• Provide the volunteer with a position description and, if applicable, a volunteer agreement which outlines expected tasks and agreed working hours.
