Most nonprofit organizations involve volunteers in governance, fundraising, and many forms of direct service delivery. Volunteers can offer many benefits to the organization, but can also raise significant legal issues.
Join us for this webinar on Tuesday, March 27 1:30-3:00 PM ET
This webinar will discuss: risk management and the organization’s liability for the acts of volunteers; legal responsibilities in screening and placing volunteers; liability for harm to volunteers; applicability of volunteer protection statutes and workers’ compensation statutes; insurance coverage and indemnification issues; applicability of employment discrimination laws; and more. The session will also discuss confidentiality, protection of intellectual property, volunteer contracts, and ways to minimize risk through training and supervision. Learn to balance the risk of possible problems against the risk of turning away valuable volunteer support. Register today. Subscribers are eligible for a 15% discount on this program.
