Volunteer Recognition
Overview
The value of volunteering is immense and irreplaceable.
One of the best ways to demonstrate the importance of volunteering to the Australian community is to ensure volunteers’ contributions are recognised, valued and accounted for.
Valuing the time and efforts of volunteers is crucial to retain them. Recognising and Rewarding volunteers is an essential part of best practise for volunteer management.
There are many ways that managers of volunteers, staff and other volunteers within the organisation can show that they appreciate and value the efforts of all the members of the volunteer team. The National Standards for volunteer involvement in part focuses on organisational practices which serve to ensure your volunteers’ efforts are recognised appropriately.
