4. Position Descriptions
4.1 Introduction
Our Position Descriptions (detailed in the following chapters) are a new introduction with this Serving Safely Policy, and aim to arm volunteers with guidelines and scope to their roles and responsibilities. In turn, the aim is to foster transparency and accountability throughout GWUC, building trust and confidence in each other in the process.
Transparency in ministry relates to the practice of being willing and able to show others how you are caring for people. Being transparent means not only doing the right things, but also being seen to do the right thing. For example: Historically, the church in Australia has been seen by many as the moral police. However, when some church leaders failed morally, these failings were rarely spoken about and sometimes swept under the carpet. As places that offer ministry to vulnerable people, it is essential that Churches are transparent in their motives and actions. We need transparency both in our relationships and in our policy and procedures.
Accountability within a Christian framework implies a willingness to be called to account. Accountability occurs best in the context of teams. This is the idea of sharing in ‘our’ ministry, rather than doing ‘my’ ministry. When a person is part of a team by which they are supported and encouraged, and is provided with an appropriate level of accountability, people are more protected from actions, which may cause harm. Good practice suggests that for accountability purposes, leaders are given clear expectations in relation to their role. This should include induction into the role so that they understand what they are responsible for and to whom they will report.
The position descriptions detailed below are in no way intended to limit any persons functioning in their volunteer role, and are welcome to updates as the position sees fit.
