Tackling volunteer liability issues - Crawford Ellenbogen

If your not-for-profit operated without volunteers during the pandemic, it’s probably a great relief to welcome them back. However, volunteers can represent risk to your organization. For example, you could be hit with lawsuits if volunteers are harmed or harm others while working for you. To protect your nonprofit, background screen new volunteers, provide thorough orientations, have staffers supervise unpaid workers and maintain adequate insurance coverage. In addition to general liability coverage, you may want to consider supplemental policies. Contact us for more information.
