Tuesday 21st April 2009, 10-1pm; 5th Floor Class room, Berkley Business Centres, Citygate House,
246-250 Romford Road, Forest Gate, E7 9HZ (Buses 25/ 86 stop outside the building).

If you pay your workers you need to be able to understand what their employment status is. People who work a few hours a week, once a month or less regularly often just invoice the organisation and act as free-lance, but does this mean that they are genuinely self-employed? In reality they are more likely to be part-time employees and this means that they have certain rights under employment law.

This useful training session aimed at people volunteering on Management Committees will look at what a volunteer, an employee, and a self-employed worker is and is not. It will explore what organisations can practically do if their "free-lancers" turn out to be part-time employees.

Places will be allocated on a first come first served basis. To book a place on this workshop please click here. Since this training room is on the 5th floor please let us know if you have any special needs. MODA is pleased to be working in partnership with LVSC PEACE Project and the Volunteer Network Centre, Newham to run this training session free of charge. We would like to hear what other training topics would around Good Practice in Volunteering would be of interest to MODA groups.
