📣This #LabourDay, we're sharing our commitment to #DecentWork and #DecentVolunteerism with the release of our own Decent Work Charter! Informed by the Ontario Nonprofit Network's pathways, we're committed to progressing decent work as core to our mission. 🔗 Read the full charter here: https://bit.ly/4g7MZj1 “We committed to implementing Decent Work practices within our own organization and leading the sector’s understanding of Decent Volunteerism,” says Volunteer Toronto’s Executive Director, Joanne McKiernan. “The two concepts are inherently related as we reflect on what type of labour is fair to be compensated for and what roles are decent to ask a volunteer to complete.” Developing a stronger sense of Decent Volunteerism is key to modernizing the voluntary sector given increased examples of indecent labour, or exploitation, labelled as “volunteerism”. Volunteer Toronto holds a frontline role in enabling Decent Volunteerism through our recruitment platform on VolunteerToronto.ca and in screening the types of roles or expectations that organizations ask volunteers to complete. We're thrilled to share this update with our network on #LabourDay!
