Introduction

This International Standard provides guidance on the involvement of spontaneous volunteers in the response to, and recovery from incidents and events. A spontaneous volunteer (SV) is an individual who is not affiliated with existing incident response organizations but who is motivated to contribute unpaid work during and following incidents.

Spontaneous offers of help during and following incidents are a growing phenomenon. While many people are willing to join a voluntary organization, they are now also likely to make short term offers to assist without committing to an individual agency. Also, as a result of media attention, the widespread use of social media and the desire to help those in need, an increasing number of spontaneous volunteers are coming forward in all regions of the world.

SVs can provide a significant resource of timely labour, skills and abilities to enhance the capacity of incident response organizations, provide valuable local knowledge, and personalise the response in an area by members of its local community. However, in large numbers SVs may overwhelm incident response organizations, interfere with response operations and create additional risks. SVs who provide relief outside of the official response may place themselves, and those they aim to help, in danger. It is important to understand and implement best practices for involving and mobilizing SVs, and the integration of SVs into response and recovery activities must be carefully managed.

This International Standard provides guidance for the involvement of SVs in incident response and recovery so that both official and unofficial resources are used effectively. It considers the preparatory measures for involving SVs in providing assistance in an incident, the planning required to engage SVs, and the ways in which SVs can contribute to community resilience over the long term.

Security and resilience — Guidelines for planning the involvement of spontaneous volunteers

1 Scope

This International Standard provides guidelines for the involvement of spontaneous volunteers (SVs) in incident response and recovery. It will help organizations that want to establish a plan to consider whether, how and when SVs can provide relief for all identified hazards. It identifies the issues to ensure the plan is risk-based and can be shown to prioritize the safety of SVs, the public they seek to assist, and incident response staff.

This International Standard is intended for use by organizations with responsibility for, or involvement in, part or all of the planning for working with spontaneous volunteers. It is applicable to all types and sizes of organizations that are involved in the planning for and management of SVs, such as local, regional, and national governments; statutory bodies; international and non-governmental organizations; businesses; and public and community groups. The range of tasks performed by SVs may require only basic planning or a plan that is more complex. While it is important to co-ordinate the participation of those volunteers trained by voluntary organizations to provide relief, this aspect is not within the scope of this standard.

4 Preparatory measures

4.1 General

Clause 4 describes the general aspects to be resolved before involving SVs in response and recovery activities. These general aspects are to:

— assign responsibility to lead, manage and co-ordinate SVs (0);

— understand SVs’ motivations (0);

— define the relationship with SVs (0); and

— clarify the key issues of uncertainty (0).

An organization may implement all clauses of this standard, or only some clauses. Partial implementation of the standard will still improve the organization’s performance when involving SVs.

4.2 Assign responsibility to lead, manage and co-ordinate SVs

The agency in charge of incident response should designate an organization to take responsibility for leading, managing and co-ordinating SVs, identified in this standard as “the organization”.

4.3 Understand SVs’ motivations

The organization should:

— understand the motivations of SVs;

— collect information on SVs motivation throughout the response and recovery, for example, during the registration process, debriefings, via social media or during conversations;

— recognize SVs may volunteer for only the initial response and recovery until their motivation dwindles or personal aims have been satisfied;

— collect information on those who offered to help the response and recovery but were not accepted by the response organizations; and

— use this information when accepting, leading, managing and coordinating SVs.

2 © ISO 2016 – All rights reserved

ISO/DIS 22319:2016(E)

Motivations of SVs may include:• Altruistic motivations, such as: o Affected persons and/or official responders needed help; o Other persons are helping which compelled SVs to assist; and o SVs have a specialist skill that was needed.• Personal motivations, such as: o Meeting new friends; o Personal connections to affected persons, community or area and/or official responders; o Building their own personal respect; o Relieving their guilt over personally avoiding the worst damage from the incident; o Relieving their anxiety about the incident by taking control of their life back through volunteering; and o Religious and faith-based motivations.The organization should consider that SVs may volunteer to achieve the aims of:• Helping communities to recover and enhance resilience;• Building community participation;• Supporting existing activities where the demand for help exceeds official capacity; and• Delivering new activities that are not part of response plans.

4.4 DefinetherelationshipwithSVs

The organization should:

— plan for the type of relationships to be established with SVs, reflecting the nature of the incident and recognizing that SVs are often first on the scene providing immediate support; and

— consider the ways in which SVs can be managed and integrated into the response and recovery.

Table 1 identifies working relationships to be used to determine if and how to integrate SVs into the official response.

The organization should consider the implications of the relationship including:

— whether a stronger relationship with SVs will reduce the potential for risk when SVs work independently;

— the need for a designated point of contact to facilitate liaison among groups of SVs who are working independently;

— the support necessary to increase the effectiveness of SVs working independently e.g. official responders assisting to resolve disputes within or across groups of SVs that affect their ability to provide relief; and

— recognition that the nature of the relationship to SVs may change during an incident, as well as across different incidents.

4.5 Clarify the key issues of uncertainty

The organization should:

— determine the concerns of stakeholders (e.g. official responders, elected officials, citizens potentially in need of assistance) regarding the involvement of SVs in response and recovery operations;

— respond to these concerns in order to make informed decisions regarding the involvement of SVs and determining SVs’ suitability for the tasks to be performed;

— clarify the important pre-conditions for the involvement of SVs regarding insurance, liability, and reimbursement of expenses; and

— confirm the responsibility for the health and safety of SVs.

ISO/DIS 22319:2016(E)

5 Plan for involving SVs

5.1 General

The organization should develop a plan for involving SVs that considers the effort, resource and information required, and provide guidance on how to:

— identify risks associated with tasks that are suitable for SVs (0);

— reduce risks associated with tasks that are suitable for SVs (0);

— accept suitable SVs (0);

— co-ordinate SVs (0);

— set expectations of SVs (0)

— monitor the tasks performed by SVs (0);

— identify needs for training or instruction (0); and

— recognize and reward SVs (0).

5.2 Identify risks associated with tasks that are suitable for SVs

The organization should:

— identify which tasks, if any, may benefit from the support of SVs.

— develop and implement processes for risk assessment of those tasks. Guidance on risk assessment can be obtained from ISO 31000 and ISO/IEC 31010;

— review risk assessments periodically with the objective of further reducing risks;

— establish a process to continually assess the risks of additional tasks that are identified during an incident;

— develop an inventory of approved response and recovery tasks suitable to be performed by SVs.

When conducting the risk assessment required by Clause 5.2, the organization should identify the potential risks to the SVs, the persons affected by the incident, other official responders and the reputation of the organizations involved, as well as other risks.

5.3 Reduce risks associated with tasks that are suitable for SVs

The organization should reduce risks to SVs by:

— developing a selection and induction process to choose SVs who are willing to follow direction from incident responders;

— preparing and distributing to SVs education materials on risk reduction as part of a safety induction process;

— confirming SVs understanding of the risk associated with tasks and the importance of working safely;

— assigning tasks to SVs appropriate to their level of competence;

— avoiding the allocation of tasks to SVs where there is uncertainty about the risk;

— providing SVs with the appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE) and resources to safely perform an assigned task;

© ISO 2016 – All rights reserved 5

ISO/DIS 22319:2016(E)

— adopting suitable work practices for SVs e.g. providing work processes for typical tasks, supervising SVs, restricting SVs work to daylight hours, removing SVs when danger is identified, and requiring them to work in groups, such as with trained community response teams or other voluntary bodies;

— determining where SVs could perform tasks that require specialist skills or training;

— identify ways to control SVs who are unaware of, or act in ways that ignore the risk;

— matching SV capability with the demands of the task to ensure individuals are working within their capabilities;

— develop procedures for briefing/debriefing SVs to highlight on-going /risks and receive feedback from SVs.

The organization should identify the potential reputational risks posed by the involvement of SVs including:

— breaches of confidentiality by releasing sensitive information;

— misrepresentation of the organization to the public or media;

— misuse of private information on citizens obtained by SVs;

— reports of incidents causing harm to SVs or those they helped;

— release of misleading information.

The organization should also perform risk assessments for tasks being conducted independently by citizens who are working without being registered as spontaneous volunteers.

5.4 Accept suitable SVs

The organization should:

— decide the number of SVs to be accepted;

— develop and implement a structured approach for screening, accepting, inducting and training SVs to conduct assigned tasks.

— accept SVs for the tasks for which they are suited;

— develop and implement a process to verify an SV’s experience, skills, qualifications, credentials and training;

— consider SVs who can leverage local knowledge and resources helping official responders unfamiliar with the area to identify the location of vulnerable persons as well as the existence of social networks such as recognized clubs and societies that can be relied on to identify other trustworthy SVs;

— determine whether and how to engage with potential SVs in advance of an incident e.g. pre-credentialing skills;

— identify existing networks of people who may have the skills and knowledge required.

Identify procedures for declining offers of help from SVs if the risk to SVs is too high.

The organization should consider that SVs may have the aim of conducting malicious acts. All aspects of the plan should reflect the level of risk posed by this potential, for example, by validating background checks, providing additional close supervision by qualified staff, or limiting information sharing to SVs.

ISO/DIS 22319:2016(E)

5.5 Co-ordinate SVs

5.5.1 Introduction

The organization should include information on co-ordinating SVs to reduce the time it takes to deploy SVs (when appropriate) following their offer of help. The plan for co-ordinating SVs should include:

— identify co-ordination mechanisms (0);

— the process for registering SVs (0);

— provide identification to SVs (0);

— communicate with SVs (0).

5.5.2 Identify co-ordination mechanisms

— The organization should identify:

— a contact point for SVs to liaise with the organization;

— resources and technologies to be used to co-ordinate SVs;

— existing management structures such as local government currently providing engagement opportunities for SVs and how this should be facilitated;

— how and where to direct SVs with particular skills or services;

— the actions to activate the SV co-ordination structure quickly to keep up with the demand created by SVs as they present themselves;

— ways to reduce the SVs’ frustration when waiting to be assigned tasks to avoid them conducting relief tasks without the support of official responders;

— ways in which an SVs may work with organizations, for example in community response teams that are not part of the official response; and

— the potential role of official responders in resolving disputes that prevent SVs from being productive, especially those who are working independently from official responders.

5.5.3 The process for registering SVs

The organization should design a SV registration process that records, at a minimum, the contact details for SVs at each location. The registration process may record additional information when required including:

— personal data including contact details such as a phone number, email address and next of kin;

— the reasons for volunteering;

— the tasks the SV believes matches their skills, experience, training or qualifications and whether these credentials can be confirmed during the incident;

— basic SV training or advanced SV training completed for specialist roles; and

— the availability of the PPE needed.

The organization should use a secure records management system to retain information and document the outcome, whether the offer was accepted, or declined and why, and the successful completion of induction, and the task instruction and training received.

ISO/DIS 22319:2016(E)

5.5.4 ProvideidentificationtoSVs

The organization should determine:

— if it is important to identify SVs to official responders and other stakeholders; and

— whether to provide identification to SVs who are part of the official response and recovery.

An identification card, branded t-shirt or high visibility jacket can provide information to official responders, the public and other stakeholders about an SV’s association with the official response, strengthen the commitment of SVs by developing a shared identity with other volunteers, and engender confidence in members of the public. Identifying SVs in this way may increase a sense of power while conducting their tasks, so the organization should ensure that SVs do not develop a feeling of invincibility, encouraging them to overstretch their capability.

5.5.5 Communicate with SVs

5.5.5.1 Identify the principles of communicating with SVs

The organization should establish principles of communication to guide whether, how, what and when to communicate with SVs before, during and after response and recovery. The communication principles should include:

— information access control policy and mechanisms;

— the nature and frequency of the information communicated to SVs;

— processes to brief, task and debrief SVs at the start and finish of each shift;

— the channels through which to communicate with SVs and the frequency of updates (for example, verbal briefings, paper-based updates, radio communications, websites, social media, a formal computer system);

— a shared understanding of the situation; and

— social aspects (e.g. gender, ethnicity, culture).

The organization should determine:

— if communication channels with SVs should be two-way, considering the pressure on information processing systems that official responders already run during incidents;

— if official responders should help SVs to communicate with one another;

— whether to communicate with groups of SVs that volunteered in past incidents, for example, to ask if they are mobilizing;

— the stages in which communication may be needed, such as the need to communicate:

o when SVs first offer their help, why the style of leadership is command and control;

o when emergency occurs, general issues on the goals and priorities as well as other information at the time of emergency e.g. evacuation instructions;

o during the response, information about the incident and regular updates of the number of people that have received help and how many still need support; and

o after the response, how they may continue to volunteer.

— Regarding the use of social media, the organization should determine:

— if there should be an official ‘branded’ social media presence to inform the local community, taking account of the public’s expectations of receiving information via social media;

8 © ISO 2016 – All rights reserved

ISO/DIS 22319:2016(E)

— if it is desirable to engage early with citizens who establish popular social media channels relating to the incident e.g. to communicate official information;

— if the organization will monitor or analyse social media for trends in conversations e.g. to identify shortfalls in response;

— whether traditional media monitors and transmits information from social media; and

— the potential to virtually coordinate SV activities.

5.5.5.2 Develop a communications plan

The organization should formalize the principles of communication and implement them in a communications plan that reflects different stages of the incident to:

— ensure that the style of communication is suitable for engaging with SVs;

— determine whether and how a public request for SVs is to be made;

— provide clear information to potential SVs about the nature of the request by having a single source of information to communicate;

o where, when and how SVs can offer help;

o the types of tasks for which SVs are needed;

o the resources that SVs should bring with them;

o the support that official responders will offer SVs;

o the benefits and risks of being an SV;

o where more information can be obtained about becoming an SV;

o issues regarding SV liability and insurance;

o the benefits of working with the official response thereby reducing the duplication of effort.

The organization should determine the information that official responders can provide to groups of SVs who work independently of official responders. This information may:

— include the benefits of developing a ‘plan on a page’ to help SVs to organize, and how to do this;

— provide a resource for SVs to share experiences and learn from each other;

— list contact details of official responders in case SVs need support;

— provide a means of monitoring the experience of SVs through two-way communication; and

— increase SV commitment and motivation.

5.6 Set expectations of SVs

The organization should determine its expectations for the roles of SVs in alignment with the nature of the task and provide information on:

— the supplies and equipment that SVs are expected to bring with them;

— the supplies and equipment that will be provided to SVs when they volunteer;

— the on-going support that SVs can expect during and after their involvement;

— the availability of rest centre facilities such as health, food and washing facilities;

© ISO 2016 – All rights reserved 9

ISO/DIS 22319:2016(E)

— the stress of volunteering and how SVs should care for themselves and how to access psychological support services, if required;

— the ongoing risks associated with tasks; and

— processes for reimbursement of expenses that SVs will be entitled to, and how to make a claim.

5.7 Monitor the tasks performed by SVs

The organization should provide appropriate monitoring and supervision of SVs to reduce the level of risk associated with their tasks, and increase the satisfaction of both SVs and the recipients of assistance.

The organization should:

— establish appropriate levels of supervision by official responders, such as team leaders and co-workers to minimize the extent to which SVs work alone;

— use a record keeping process such as sign in and sign out forms for each shift to monitor where SVs are working and for how long; and

— identify other forms of monitoring, such as having SVs work within other local structures that are known and trusted by official responders.

5.8 Identify needs for training or instruction

The organization should consult official responders, other stakeholders and SVs with respect to the training and instruction needed. The organization should provide training for official responders and other stakeholders who are unfamiliar with ways to engage SVs and ensure that their contribution is effective.

Training for official responders and other stakeholders should include:

— information on the different roles of SVs, paid staff and other types of volunteers, and their differing motivations, aims and skill levels;

— alternative management styles with the potential to maximize the productivity of SVs;

— ways to assist SVs in achieving operational objectives and personal aims when volunteering;

— how the information available from registration, tasking, monitoring and feedback processes can enhance the contribution of SVs to response and recovery; and

— the importance of setting a good example for SVs by requiring staff and others to use PPE consistently and correctly and to follow proper procedure.

Training for SVs should include:

— instructions to increase their effectiveness and reduce risks including instruction on frequently encountered hazards for different types of incidents;

— instruction on specific and specialist roles assigned to an individual SV e.g. safe handling procedures for assigned tasks;

— the proper use of equipment provided by official responders;

— communication radio procedures and etiquette;

— tasks or activities not to be performed by SVs.

Note 1 Both on-the-job learning and training refresher courses may be appropriate to update SV skills when there is a gap in time between the training and the opportunity to apply the training content.

10 © ISO 2016 – All rights reserved

ISO/DIS 22319:2016(E)

Note 2 Basic tasks may require a very brief instruction on how to do the task safely, while complex tasks may require more training to address the associated hazards and determine the point at which training is most appropriately offered. Options include training SVs before they are accepted, before they begin their work, during response, or after the incident.

5.9 Recognize and reward SVs

The organization should determine whether, and how volunteers will be recognized for their involvement, for example as part of the debriefing process where SVs are thanked or with additional recognition and rewards.

6 Longer term issues

6.1 General

The organization should consider ways to keep volunteers involved in long term recovery activities and capitalize on the hidden resilience offered by SVs. This clause details how to:

— assess the impact of SVs (0);

— understand how to engage SVs in the longer term recovery (0);

— encourage SVs to pursue organized volunteering roles (0); and

— evaluate and continually improve SV involvement procedures (0).

6.2 Assess the impact of SVs

The organization should:

— document the number of work hours provided by SVs during the response and recovery;

— use the information to quantify the economic value of the SV contribution and evaluate the involvement and impact of SVs;

— estimate and communicate the value of SVs’ time to calculate the cost/benefit of SVs’ involvement in relief operations; and

— identify examples of the impact of SVs in accomplishing its work plans to assess the impact of SVs’ work.

6.3 Understand how to engage SVs in the longer term recovery

The organization should:

— consider the longer term roles that SVs can have in the on-going recovery to ensure continuity after official responders have left and communicate these to SVs;

— communicate to SVs before leaving the response and recovery;

— identify the resources that will remain after the official recovery phase has ended, and the continuing roles available to SVs; and

— determine the role for SVs in providing longer-term support to those affected by the incident, such as helping to re-establish community groups.

6.4 Encourage SVs to pursue organized volunteering roles

The organization should consider:

— ways to encourage SVs to join voluntary organizations aligned to the tasks provided an SV;

— how to support SVs to establish volunteer groups that could operate independently of established organizations;

— promote SV participation in exercises and training; and

— the need to respect that some SVs are not interested in a longer term volunteering commitment.

6.5 Evaluate and continually improve SV involvement procedures

The organization should evaluate and update its plan for working with SVs following an exercise or an actual incident. This should:

— review SVs involvement in the response and recovery

— consult SVs, official responders, incident response organizations and other stakeholders;

— consider the need for an external evaluation by independent experts;

— identify other sources of information such as published reports, research projects, government studies, and lessons learned;

— evaluate how SV involvement has changed from incident to incident;

— share results of the evaluation with stakeholders;

— identify ways to improve the plan and SVs’ involvement in the response and recovery and update the plan accordingly;

— make the evaluation results public, if appropriate, such as through its web site.

Annex A (informative)

Checklist of tasks to plan SV involvement

A.1 Checklist of tasks

The checklist of tasks in the table below can be used by the organization to monitor its planning for involving SVs. The checklist is based on the sections of the standard, and the row numbers correspond to the clauses.

The use of this checklist should be done in two stages.

Stage 1: The organization should decide the level of performance it aims to achieve on each task.

Stage 2: The organization should rate its progress in fulfilling each task.

Performance should be rated on a 5 point scale where:

1 = We have made no meaningful progress

2 = We are approaching a satisfactory standard

3 = We deliver to a satisfactory standard

4 = We have exceeded a satisfactory standard

5 = We are an example of best practice

The difference between the Stage 1 and 2 assessments indicates where effort is required to meet the organization’s desired level of performance.

The table should record the justification for the assessments and the actions to be implemented to strengthen performance, and acts as an audit trail for when it is reviewed. Once the actions resulting from these priorities have been implemented, the table can be used again to assess progress and identify new priorities.
