Volunteering Project Minimum Standards

As part of ratifying with York SU, each project has minimum standards that they must adhere to in order to remain ratified with York SU.

The minimum standards for a project shall be:

• Hand in all re-ratification documents by the deadline

• Ensure that all volunteers purchase a Project Registration via the YorkSU website before they volunteer with the project

• Complete mandatory training 

• Adhere to project constitution, Code of Conduct and all other agreements.

• Complete a termly impact report, using the template provided and send it to the Fundraising and Volunteering Coordinator by the deadlines set.

There is a penalty system in place if the minimum standards are not followed:

• Hand in essential documents -  if they are not in on time, you will get a warning and failure to comply may lead to de-ratification

• Room Booking Agreement not agreed to, inability to book rooms for student group or room taken off you.

• Grant application in after deadline - you may not be eligible for a grant, or receive less of a grant.

• Failure to adhere to the project constitution, Code of Conduct and/or all other agreements could result in de-ratification and/or disciplinary action.

• Failure to complete project committee training by the deadlines set will result in a warning, and continued failure to complete mandatory training may lead to de-ratification

• Failure to submit termly impact reports may result in reduced funding due to inaccurate data on file and further disciplinary action.
