Policies and Procedures
It is
important for all volunteers and staff to be familiar with this. See the
policies and procedures here andhttp://pbs.org.au/policy.
The Policies and Procedures Handbook ensures that PBS remains in safe
compliance with the Codes of Practice and other relevant legislation. It also
positions PBS volunteers, announcers and staff to operate with a shared, clear
understanding of how things work at PBS. Please read it carefully. And if
you’re inspired, why not consider becoming a PBS shareholder?
