National Standards Deep Dive - Standard 4

Gain an understanding of the National Standards for Volunteer Involvement - Standard 4:  Recruitment is equitable and diversity is valued and how to implement the standard into your organisation.

Standard 4 outlines that volunteer recruitment and selection strategies meet the needs of the organisation and volunteers; they facilitate and value diversity and promote equity and accessibility. 

This is achieved by ensuring: 

• Volunteer recruitment and selection strategies meet the needs of the organisation and volunteers.
• Using planned and innovative approaches to attract people with relevant interests, knowledge and skills.
• Volunteers are selected based on their interests, knowledge, skills and suitability for the role.
• Diversity, inclusivity and accessibility principles are built into recruitment.
