Are volunteers covered?

stagingeckburg · Accepted Answer

A volunteer acting on behalf of a non-profit becomes a named insured. Therefore, claims caused by the volunteer would be covered. For example, volunteers who are preparing a meal for a church event would be covered if food poisoning occurred. Injuries to volunteers, however, are typically not covered under Workers Compensation because they are not receiving pay.
