Though many people go to work for a nonprofit because they value the types of services they provide or causes they support, employee and volunteer trust is not necessarily a given. Creating an environment that establishes transparency in company practices helps to develop trust at all levels of the organization. One surprising way to open the doors to transparency is by encouraging incident reporting in nonprofits.
Filing incident reports is often an established procedure and employee responsibility. However, there are several reasons employees and volunteers neglect the process. As reported on https://visvolunteers.com, opening up communication on the shared responsibility for risk management across the organization can reduce barriers to incident reporting, such as:
Regularly inform organization personnel about the importance of filing incident reports to the improvement of company practices. When incident reports are filed, follow up with the individual who filed it, acknowledging its receipt and, if possible and appropriate, any steps that were taken to address any issues revealed in the report. Encouraging incident reporting in nonprofits helps to increase organizational transparency and employee and volunteer trust.
When you buy a new boat, one thing you need to consider is storage and use. If you don’t have a dock, you may want to look at leasing space at a marina slip. Here are some things to know about marina slip contracts.
The insurance firm Merrimac Marine Insurance states that many marinas require liability insurance as part of their slip contracts. A minimum limit may be required for liability coverage. In addition, most marinas require the boat to be registered.
The contract likely has use rules such as boat operability. Some marinas include provisions for the number of times per year the boat must leave the slip. In fact, inoperable boats may not be allowed in some marinas.
Not everything is likely to be included in the rental price. You may have to pay additional fees or line items as part of the contract not listed as the rental price. There may be fees for late-payments or early cancellation.
Most contracts include termination clauses. A common one is that if you fail to follow the rules, the marina can cancel the contract.
Understanding marina slip contracts can ensure you know exactly what you are paying for. The last thing you want is to face a fee you didn’t realize you would pay. A good contract is for the benefit of the marina and boaters.
