Volunteer Types For Adult Volunteers
4-H has provided Volunteer Role Descriptions to all adult volunteers. This is necessary to comply with policies concerning volunteers and state liability insurance coverage. All adults will need to select a club and volunteer type in 4HOnline. The choices for club volunteer type are:
- Activity/Event Volunteer
- Adult Advisor/Chaperone
- Club Enrollment Coordinator (formerly Club Enrollment and Club Manager)
- Club Leader (includes Organizational/General and Co-Organizational/Co-General)
- Committee Volunteer
- Project Leader (includes Key Leader and Resource Leader)
Volunteers can only choose one so the most relevant role needs to be selected. Volunteers will not be associated with a specific club!
Project Leaders still need to select a project and volunteer type on the project selection screen.

4-H VOLUNTEERS – INCIDENT / INJURY REPORTING
HIGH RISK Injuries/Incidents
A high-risk incident poses a serious risk to an Extension Volunteer(s), Extension Program Participant(s), or third party. Examples of High Risk Injuries/Incidents include:
- Injury of employee, volunteer, participant, or third party that requires professional medical attention.A threat of serious harm to self or others.
- Anything requiring intervention by police (e.g. missing child, safety concerns).
- Hazardous materials exposure or spills.
- Termination or withdrawal of a volunteer, participant, or third party with potential intersections with civil rights, e.g. concerns regarding discrimination.
- Critical staff errors, such as incorrect administration of medication, or an injury caused by a staff person.
- Concerns for possible claims of negligence or liability.
- Vehicle accidents with personally-owned or rental vehicles on official UW business.
IMPORTANT: The report must be filed within 48 hours of the incident.
*******
LOW RISK Injuries/Incidents
LOW RISK Injuries/Incidents typically DO NOT need to be submitted. A “low risk” incident is one where the impact to an Extension Volunteer(s), Extension Program Participant(s), or third party is both minor and temporary. Low-risk incidents typically do not require a report to the Office of Risk Management. Examples of Low Risk Injuries/Incidents include:
- Minor injuries e.g. scrapes or bumps to the body that do not require medical attention beyond basic first aid.
- Non-communicable illnesses that result in a volunteer, program participant, or third party needing to sit out of an activity or to be sent home.
- Behavioral problems, or verbal conflicts between participants, parents, or volunteers that necessitate staff or volunteer intervention.
- Other incidents at the discretion of the Extension Employee that do not rise to the level of a high-risk incident.
Note: There is some grey area within these examples that will require an employee to use professional judgement. When in doubt, treat an incident as “high risk.”
