Food Services Volunteer

A volunteer’s responsibilities include completing tasks assigned to them in support of AAMA Food Services's high standards and values. In addition to assigned tasks, the volunteer is expected to demonstrate professionalism, arrive on time, and follow instructions.

Some of a volunteer's duties might involve preparing meals, helping with meal setup, cleaning up after meals and preparations, and working jointly with food service workers.

When volunteers are on duty, their dress is required to conform to the AAMA Food Services's dress code.

All Volunteers will be required to complete a Background Check and Drug Test.

Volunteers will check in at upon arrival. This record allows AAMA to know who is in the building.

Volunteers will wear name badges provided by the AAMA as a security measure and as recognition of its value on its volunteers.
