SALAM VOLUNTEERS WORK FULL-TIME WITH THE
organisations
they are assigned to. The preferred length of service is at
least six months, although shorter working stints may be arranged in
certain circumstances, particularly for people who are engaged in
highly specialised or technical fields.
SALAM volunteers
receive an allowance sufficient to meet board and lodging expenses.
This ranges from RM 600 to RM 800 a month, depending on the cost of
living in the area where they work. If lodging is provided, the
quantum will be adjusted. Volunteers are also given medical and
personal accident insurance coverage.
When SALAM volunteers are assigned to a
requesting organisation, they become "employees" of that
organisation. Although SALAM provides these volunteers with an
allowance and monitors their work, the volunteers report to the
organisation they are placed with and take instructions from their
staff.
SALAM volunteers may work overseas or at home. Where a
volunteer works depends on the placement positions available at a
particular point in time, and a person's skills and preferences.
Volunteer work within the country or overseas is equally important
and rewarding.
