Benefits of Volunteering

An estimated 5000 members undertake office bearer roles and voluntary tasks each year. Their efforts are estimated to produce over half of Engineers Australia's outputs.

We greatly appreciate this voluntary contribution and provide support resources, inductions and training. We have a variety of ways in which we give recognition to our office bearers and volunteers, such as through the Engineers Australia Medal program (see page 18, Honours and Awards Reference Manual, May 2007 ).

This section highlights the benefits of volunteering for individual volunteers and their employers, and how to make the most of it.
