Our suggestion is to use these as follows:
- Health and safety of volunteers working on farms post-earthquake - the following guidelines can be used by volunteers, organisers of volunteers and farmers as part of an earthquake response and recovery.
- Checklist for organisers of volunteers – this can be used for organisers of volunteers who will use this checklist to brief volunteers over the phone to check a volunteer’s suitability for the role by informing of the specific health, safety and other issues around working in post-earthquake conditions.
- Registration form for volunteers – organisers of volunteers can send this form electronically to volunteers or provide in a hard copy format for volunteers to complete and send back, signed (either physically or confirmed via email) to confirm they understand the specific health and safety and other issues around working in post-earthquake conditions.
- Checklist for farmers briefing volunteers – farm owners can use this on-farm when they are briefing volunteers on their arrival.
- Volunteer Register – farm owners can use this on-farm for volunteers to fill out their information and to record a time in/out.
