Administrators of Volunteer Resources BC Survey Jan 30th, 2008, Online There is a growing concern that Not for Profits, Charities and other volunteer reliant organizations throughout Canada, may not be adequately insured in the event a volunteer is injured while working in their volunteer role. To that end, we are conducting research with a company who provides insurance to volunteer firefighters, municipal volunteers and auxiliary policing groups across Canada, to assess if adequate benefits are in place in the event a volunteer is injured in other volunteer settings. A survey to administrators, coordinators, managers of volunteer systems is part of this research. We would value your thoughts and invite you to take a few minutes to complete the survey at below link. The Monkey Survey is a free and basic tool that takes two to three minutes only to complete. Your responses are confidential and the collated NON identifying results will be shared to all who participate. Those who complete the survey by our January 30th deadline will be part of an electronic draw that will award the winner with a Future Shop gift card; a great volunteer thank you gift or door prize. As the survey is designed to be anonymous you must place your email address or name and phone # in the comment field of the last question to be a participant in our draw. The survey closes January 30th, 2008. http://www.surveymonkey.com/s.aspx?sm=hbW0SGLbcXd3tC0q0168EQ_3d_3d . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . |
