3.9 Volunteers receiving Job Seeker Allowance
Volunteers who are receiving a Services Australia Job Seeker Allowance may have their Libraries Tasmania volunteer hours count towards their “mutual obligation” activity. However, this is based on the needs of Libraries Tasmania and is at the discretion of the local manager and available volunteering opportunities. If agreed, the volunteer will arrange for the local manager or coordinator to complete the required Services Australia documentation and provide letter of support if required. Proof of hours as recorded by the volunteer’s timesheet may be used to support the Services Australia documentation.
Libraries Tasmania does not participate in the Australian Government’s Work for the Dole program.
