Summary of Changes from Previous Version

12/5/17 Clause (20) – sentence removed as the procedure was never created and the information has been embedded in other general volunteering documentation. “The volunteer induction and training commitments are described in the Volunteer Training, Induction and Support Procedure which accompanies this Policy.”


This Policy defines 'volunteering' as distinct from work which should be paid and sets out the rights and responsibilities of volunteers, and Victoria University's responsibilities to volunteers.


Previously, this Policy was managed via the Central Policy Register. Its history pre-September 2014 can be found in the archive of that system. This Policy came into force with an Operational Date of 10 June 2014.
