HR Policy Manual Updated

New policy provides guidelines for volunteers, unpaid interns

As part of a regular review process, Human Resources has updated the online HR Policy Manual with the addition of a new policy regarding Volunteer and Unpaid Intern Policy Guidelines

The policy provides general guidance within which University, Schools and Departments may establish specific procedures pertaining to volunteers and unpaid interns, both of whom are uncompensated and not eligible for any Duke benefits, including unemployment or workers compensation.

The online HR Policy Manual is updated twice a year, once in the fall and once in the spring. A listing of all the changes can be found on the Polices section of the Human Resources website under Revision Notes.
