- Tells you where you stand when it comes to solving issues with volunteers
- Suggests ways of lowering the chances of problems arising
- Gives advice on how to handle problems with volunteers, both informally and formally

*This template is provided by the Volunteer Centre in Bexley to help organisations that may need support with setting up, or refreshing, their internal volunteer stream policies and support documents. You are welcome to use them. They should be rebranded and adjusted to your own’s organisation’s needs, and approved by your own trustees. Please be aware that the documents are not legally checked and you must take responsibility for ensuring that they meet your organisational requirements and are legally compliant*
