    (To be completed only by volunteers intending to drive own vehicle on behalf of Council business)
  • I understand that the motor vehicle I own, which I will use to conduct volunteer work on behalf of Council, must have comprehensive motor vehicle insurance. I understand that if this insurance is to lapse, then I will no longer drive my vehicle on behalf of Council and I agree that I will inform the Council immediately so that alternative arrangements can be made.

    I understand that I will need to complete a Volunteer Working with Children Check and Police Check prior to commencing any work on behalf of Council and acknowledge that I am not covered by Council’s insurance for any volunteer work I undertake on behalf of Council until I have passed a Police Check and provided evidence of a Volunteer Working with Children Check.

  • Hindmarsh Shire Council is responsible for ensuring the safety of our community through all of our services, projects, events and committees. It is a requirement that all volunteers representing Council hold a valid Working with Children Check (WWCC) and complete a Police Check prior to undertaking any volunteer responsibilities. 

    We greatly appreciate your contributions in making Hindmarsh a safe and healthy community. 

    To complete your Police Check documentation online, visit https://www.crimcheck.org.au/check/hindmarsh. You will need to ensure that you have sufficient identity documents ready as you will be timed out of the website after 30 minutes. If you require assistance, please call our Human Resources team on (03) 5391 4444 or email hr@hindmarsh.vic.gov.au for detailed instructions.
