Personal Conduct
1. Dress Code
  
  Volunteers are responsible for presenting a positive example to partners and the community. Volunteers shall dress appropriately in public and at work, always keeping in mind the cultural norms and practices of the community.
  
  As a rule of thumb, all volunteers should be attired modestly as far as the nature of the voluntary work allows, and refrain from clothing with offensive or objectional material.
2. Personal and Public Communication
  
  Volunteers shall exercise discretion in any personal communication regarding their assignment or other related persons and issues. They shall refer any media requests to comment on AMWF projects to the Media Head and seek prior permission and guidance before speaking to the press.
  
  Volunteers shall exercise extreme discretion in posting personal comments about AMWF projects, project partners or the community on news media and social media platforms such as weblogs (or blog), podcasts, Facebook, Twitter, etc.
  
  Offensive or unwarranted negative comments may result in disciplinary action. Volunteers shall contact AMWF if they require advice on such communication.
3. Unlawful Behaviour
  
  AMWF will not condone any conduct or pattern of behaviour or any criminal behaviour, which may or may not incur risk of injury, physical harm to self or others or presents a substantial possibility of loss or destruction of property. This will result in termination of the volunteers’ involvement with AMWF.
Professional Conduct
1. Collaboration and communication
  
  Volunteers should maintain cordial relationships and collaborate with staff, other volunteers and beneficiaries with the highest standards of professional courtesy. Volunteers should communicate sensitively and in ways appropriate to existing cultural norms.
2. Decorum
  
  Volunteers should exercise care in their language, gestures and attitudes, ensuring that they do not act in such a manner that is harmful to others or embarrassing and disparaging to AMWF. The use of abusive language or calling of offensive names or making of inappropriate remarks is strictly prohibited as is intimate or inappropriate physical contact.
  
  Volunteers must uphold respect for privacy. Volunteers should not take photos or make recordings of any kind, unless otherwise they are authorized for the same, during the volunteering session. They should not request or exchange personal details or contact information with beneficiaries.
  
  Volunteers must ensure safety to oneself and to others at all times. Volunteers must not smoke, use or be in possession, or be under the influence of alcohol or non-prescriptive drugs at any time while serving the community.
3. Conflict of Interest
  
  Volunteers should avoid any personal, financial, conflict or other interests that might hinder their capability or willingness to perform their assigned duties. Volunteers are expected to avoid situations which may have conflict of interest with the organisation (e.g. other commitments, roles in other organisations). If any potential area of conflict arises, please consult/inform AMWF team.
4. Punctuality and Absenteeism
  
  Volunteers are expected to perform their duties punctually and as assigned. When expecting to be absent from scheduled duty, volunteers shall inform their Group Admin or Chapter Admin as far in advance as possible so that alternative arrangements may be made. Continual absenteeism will result in a review of the volunteer’s involvement.
5. Confidentiality
  
  Volunteers are expected to maintain the confidentiality of all proprietary or privileged or personal information to which they are exposed while serving as volunteers, whether this information involves a single member of staff, volunteers, beneficiary, or other person or involving the overall working of AMWF.
6. Termination
  
  AMWF may review or terminate any volunteer who engages in behaviour which, in the opinion of AMWF, may affect the proper discharge of his/her duties and responsibilities as a volunteer or affect the reputation of AMWF or AMWF’s programmes.
