Volunteers' rights You do not have a contract of employment as a volunteer, so you do not have the same rights as an employee or worker. You will usually be given a volunteer agreement that explains: the level of supervision and support you'll get. what training you'll get.
Volunteer agreements help organisations and volunteers know what to expect from each other. They also remind organisations to offer a good volunteer experience. Agreements set out: what an organisation will offer its volunteers. what it hopes for from them.
A contract is a voluntary arrangement between two or more parties that is enforceable at law. It is a legally- binding agreement that obligates two or more parties to complete certain tasks.
