HAPPY VOLUNTEERING 
Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) for conducting a volunteering activity
A volunteering activity must be conducted based on the Annual Activity Plan. Each Volunteer Champion will be given the responsibility to plan and execute the activity with her / his departmental colleagues.
Pre-event Preparation:
- Publicity within the plant. Canteen talks; Event-related computer wallpaper; collaterals shared by HO team
- Plan the agenda. — Inauguration — Flow of the event with timings — Chief guest and guest of honor — Material required for the activity / event in general:
- Banner (with program branding shared by the Group CSR department)
- Water, food and refreshments for volunteers
- Camera and videos
- Other venue decoration
- Material required for inauguration (lamps, ribbons, cheques, etc.)
- Resources required (within approved and existing budgets).
Points to be noted:
- A note with details of the material including the description, quantity and remarks, needs to be prepared.
- The Champion of the plant/ location recommends it to the Leader for his approval.
- Wherever an asset is being created, it needs to be acknowledged by the receiving beneficiary in a formatted receipt which needs to be preserved till the audit is completed.
- Identify if an external resource person is required (blood bank, doctors and any other professionals).
- Arrange for press / media to cover the event as per need.
- Send the invitation letters / permission letters and other related communication
During Event:
- Carry attendance register.
- Click photographs (high resolution).
- Take volunteer and beneficiary feedback in writing (to be used later for documentation purposes).
- Submit bills, to the respective accounts departments
- Motivate employees with participation certificates, any other locally created mementos or thank you cards / emails with photographs of the event.
- Prepare a report with pictures and submit it to the Group CSR department
Points to be noted:
1. Due care must be taken to ensure that a social activity is not converted into a sponsorship / advertising activity.
2. Volunteering activities carried out must be purely secular. No religious activities should be supported under CSR.
3. Only a cash donation to any NGO / institution is not a Volunteering activity.
4. One employee participating in multiple Volunteering activities will not result in an increase in the number of volunteers. Instead it will result in an increase in the number of man hours. Thus, one employee = one volunteer.
5. Ensure, a minimum of two quotations (ideally three) for the material procured.
