Volunteer Agreements. The original tribunal said that the CAB’s Volunteer Agreement should have stated explicitly that the agreement was not intended to create a legal relationship. The appeals tribunal felt that, on the contrary, the fact that the agreement was not signed, and that its stated intention was “to clarify the reasonable expectations of both the volunteer and the bureau” suggested that it was never intended to be legally binding. Expectations are not obligations The original tribunal had pointed to a minimum commitment of 6 hours per week as a contractual element in the relationship. The appeals tribunal felt that, as the agreement expressed this is “a usual minimum commitment”, it was simply outlining an expectation. Volunteers were not told they had to work those hours, nor was there any sanction against them if they did not. The bureau relied on volunteers and that it was therefore not unreasonable for it to have guidelines. Also, volunteers were not paid for the hours. Expenses and “if contracts” The reimbursement of expenses was regarded as significant by the original tribunal, but this was dismissed by the appeals tribunal, which felt that it would be surprising if organisations left unpaid volunteers out-of-pocket. The appeals tribunal was, however, prepared to accept that the agreement to reimburse expenses did amount to a contract. At first glance, this is confusing, because a contract normally involves a 2-way relationship. But the appeals tribunal felt there may be a unilateral contract (known as an “if contract”) in the agreement to reimburse expenses and insure volunteers against negligence claims, based on the wording of the Volunteer Agreement; “if you do any work for the bureau and incur expenses in doing so, and/or suffer a claim from a client you advise, the bureau will indemnify you against your expenses and any such claim”. Now this may be a contract of sorts, but it is a contract on this issue only – not an employment contract, as crucially it does not obligate the volunteer to do any work for the bureau. No obligation to provide or carry out work The original tribunal concluded that the “usual minimum commitment” of 6 hours committed volunteers to work, and in return as a consideration (a payment element of a contract) the bureau would provide training , supervision, experience, expenses and insurance cover – all benefits that would be removed if the volunteer didn’t provide the bureau with work. The appeals tribunal considered the original tr...
Volunteer Agreements. If your organisation is not in a position to be able to pay people for the time they spend coaching for you, a Contract of Employment will not be necessary. However, you may want to consider using a Volunteer Agreement, as this clarifies what commitment both the coach and the organisation can expect from each other. Volunteer Agreements are not intended to be legally binding documents and should simply be used as guidelines for both parties. An example is given on the next page.

Volunteer Agreements. If your organisation is not in a position to be able to pay people for the time they spend coaching for you, a Contract of Employment will not be necessary. However, you may want to consider using a Volunteer Agreement, as this clarifies what commitment both the coach and the organisation can expect from each other. Volunteer Agreements are not intended to be legally binding documents and should simply be used as guidelines for both parties. An example is given on the next page. Payment of Expenses: Some organisations pay their volunteers expenses to cover any costs they have incurred which are directly related to their volunteering, i.e. travel to and from the place of volunteering, meals taken while volunteering, postage/phone calls etc, childcare costs incurred while volunteering, and any specialist clothing/equipment required while volunteering. This might also include covering the cost of training courses and related travel/accommodation expenses. We fully recommend that this takes place wherever possible; as it supports the volunteer coach and provides them with some recognition for the time they donate to the organisation. However, both the organisation and the volunteer coach need to be aware that there may be tax implications, as outlined below. In general, where the expenses paid by the organisation are no more than the actual out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the volunteer coach, there is no tax liability. However, if a volunteer coach is given a lump sum to cover their expenses and ‘a bit extra as a thank you’, or if they are given funding towards training that is not directly relevant to their volunteer role, they could be liable for tax on the full amount. It is good practice for the volunteer coach to give copies of receipts for all expenditure to the relevant person within the organisation, and for the organisation to keep records of all payments in case of any queries from HM Revenue and Customs. CONTRACTS/VOLUNTEER AGREEMENTS Contracts/Statements of Main Terms and ConditionsPaid Employment If you are planning on paying someone for the time they spend coaching for you, you will need to issue them with a Contract of Employment. A contract is legally-binding agreement between an employer and an employee. It may be verbally (i.e. through the initial telephone call to offer the job), but should also be put in writing to avoid dispute (i.e. through formal job offer letter). All employers are legally required to put the Statement of Main Ter...
