Did you know that according to the Business Council of British Columbia, approximately 90% of employers surveyed in March of this year do not have a policy regarding employee-volunteers for the 2010 Winter Games?

The 2010 Winter Olympics will be held from February 12 to 28 and Paralympics from March 12 to 21, 2010.  However, before, during and after the Games approximately 25,000 volunteers are required to fill positions ranging from handling accommodation inquiries and food and beverage services, to community relations and risk management and assurance.  Further, these positions will require a significant time commitment, including a minimum of 13 shifts for the Olympics and 8 for the Paralympics, ranging over a period of 17 days to several months.
