Custom choices

Which choices determine the content?

With the answers to these questions, you determine how comprehensive the agreement needs to be and which risks you need to cover.

Choice or question Why this matters legally
Do you pay a fee? An expense allowance is permitted under the volunteer scheme; an excessively high or fixed allowance may result in the relationship being classified as an employment relationship.
Does the volunteer work with vulnerable people? In that case, a Certificate of Conduct, a code of conduct, and additional safeguards regarding safety and privacy are important.
For what period is the deployment intended? Choose between a fixed term for a project or an indefinite term for structural commitment, and arrange the termination accordingly.
Which insurance policies does your organization have? Determine whether to take out volunteer insurance and who is liable in the event of damage or injury.
Does the volunteer have access to confidential information? If so, include a confidentiality and privacy clause.
Clauses and provisions

What elements belong in a volunteer agreement?

The following components ensure that the agreements are complete and that the relationship clearly remains volunteer work rather than employment.

Provision Relevant to Legal point of attention
Parties and objective Always Name the organization and the volunteer and describe the purpose of the effort; emphasize the voluntary and unpaid nature.
Nature of the activities Always Describe the tasks broadly, without suggesting a strict hierarchical relationship resembling employment.
Expense allowance Upon reimbursement Document which costs are reimbursed and stay within the tax-deductible volunteer scheme to avoid tax liability.
Duration and termination Always Determine whether the agreement is for a fixed or indefinite period and how both parties may terminate it.
Insurance and liability Always Determine which insurance policies apply and who is liable for damage during volunteer work.
Confidentiality Regarding confidential info Require the volunteer to maintain confidentiality regarding information he or she learns during the deployment.
Privacy and data Regarding personal data Agree on how personal data will be handled, in accordance with the GDPR.
Code of Conduct and Certificate of Conduct Among vulnerable target groups Refer to internal codes of conduct and any required Certificate of Good Conduct.
Use in practice

How do you use this document correctly?

By deploying the agreement at the right time and managing it properly, the arrangements remain usable and legally sound.

Situation What should you do? Point of attention
Before the start of the work Have both parties sign before the volunteer starts This way, the agreements are set in stone before misunderstandings arise.
In case of a change in tasks Adjust the description of activities A current agreement prevents discussion regarding the content of the stake.
For reimbursements Keep receipts and payments This way, you demonstrate that you remain within the tax volunteer scheme.
Upon termination Confirm the cancellation in writing A written conclusion prevents ambiguity regarding the end date.
Common mistakes

Common mistakes

These errors often lead to a volunteer relationship being considered an employment relationship after all, or to you running unnecessary risk.

Wrong Consequence Better approach
Paying an excessive fee The Tax and Customs Administration may classify the relationship as an employment relationship Stay within the amounts of the tax-deductible volunteer scheme.
Do not draft an agreement Lack of clarity regarding duties, compensation, and liability Always record the agreements in writing.
Assuming a strict relationship of authority Risk that the criteria of Article 7:610 of the Dutch Civil Code are met Describe tasks broadly and avoid employer authority.
Ignoring insurance and liability Damage or injury without coverage Arrange volunteer insurance and establish liability.
Forgot privacy agreements Conflict with the GDPR regarding the processing of personal data Include a GDPR-compliant privacy clause.
Risk profile

What is your situation and what do you pay attention to?

Depending on your organization and the type of volunteer work, the focus shifts to other parts of the agreement.

Risk profile Example Focus in the document
Sports or neighborhood association Many volunteers with varying tasks Clear expense reimbursement and appropriate volunteer insurance.
Care or youth organization Work with vulnerable people Certificate of Conduct, code of conduct, and strict privacy and confidentiality agreements.
One-time event Temporary, project-based deployment Fixed-term agreement with a clear end date.
Foundation with structural commitment Regular volunteers over a longer period Indefinite-term agreement with a clear termination clause.
Additional documents

When is this document not enough?

In some situations, a different document is more suitable for the agreements you wish to make.

Situation Supplementary document Why
Situation Related document Explanation
There is a matter of wages, work, and authority Employment contract A genuine relationship of authority with remuneration calls for an employment contract rather than a volunteer agreement.
The volunteer gains access to sensitive company information Confidentiality Agreement A separate confidentiality agreement establishes confidentiality more comprehensively than a single clause.
Personal data is processed on a systematic basis for your organization Data Processing Agreement When processing personal data on behalf of your organization, a data processing agreement may be required under the GDPR.
Explanation of this document

Drafting a volunteer agreement, why?

Not every entrepreneur knows exactly what volunteer agreements are, when they are needed, and which risks they must cover. Therefore, we explain below what this document entails, what to look out for, and why customized legal solutions are important.

What is a volunteer agreement?
A volunteer agreement is the agreement under which a volunteer performs unpaid work for an organization — typically a foundation, association, church, or other non-profit organization — without an employment contract existing. The volunteer agreement sets out the arrangements regarding the nature of the work, time commitment, volunteer compensation, insurance coverage, and termination terms. A correctly drafted volunteer agreement is important to prevent the relationship from being reclassified as an employment contract — with all the associated tax and employment law consequences. Our lawyers will draft a volunteer agreement for you that correctly anchors the voluntary nature of the relationship, handles volunteer compensation correctly for tax purposes, and properly establishes the organization's insurance obligations.
When is a volunteer allowance exempt from tax?
A volunteer allowance is tax-free if it remains within the statutory limits. Pursuant to Article 3.96 of the Income Tax Act 2001 and Article 11, paragraph 1, sub q of the Wage Tax Act 1964, a volunteer scheme: an allowance of a maximum of €210 per month and a maximum of €2,100 per year is tax-free for volunteers at ANBIs or sports organisations. Exceeding these limits—even if the volunteer repays the excess—results in the entire allowance being taxable. Your volunteer agreement must stipulate the allowance structure within the statutory limits and inform the organisation about the tax risks associated with exceeding them. Our lawyers advise you on a fiscally correct volunteer allowance.
How does it work at MKBjuristen?
After a brief intake, our lawyers draft a volunteer agreement that correctly anchors the voluntary nature of the relationship, handles the volunteer compensation correctly for tax purposes, and correctly establishes the organization's insurance obligations.
Are you unsure whether your document is legally correct? We would be happy to assess the sensible course of action: drafting, reviewing, or amending.

Why not use a standard document?

A standard document often seems like a quick solution, but usually does not fully align with your company, agreements, risks, and way of working. Our legal experts draft documents that fit your situation.

Standard document
SME Lawyers
Not tailored to your business
Tailored to your company, industry, and working methods
No control over your specific situation
Consultation with a lawyer and assessment of your risks
Possibly outdated or incomplete
Verification of current and practical provisions
No personal explanation
Explanation regarding the use of the document

A standard document seems cheap, until it doesn't fit your situation properly. That is why we provide custom legal solutions tailored to your business.

Custom solutions per industry and company

Every business operates differently and faces different legal risks. Therefore, we tailor the document to your industry, customers, agreements, and way of working.

Webshops & e-commerce

Focus on online sales, delivery, returns, complaints, payment, digital products, and consumer regulations.

Business services

Attention to the assignment, additional work, liability, payment, termination, and reliance on client information.

Construction, installation & execution

Attention to planning, delivery, warranties, additional work, materials, delays, and liability risks.

Software, SaaS & digital services

Attention to licenses, availability, support, updates, data, intellectual property, and limitation of liability.

Trade, supply & wholesale

Attention to delivery, transport, payment, retention of title, warranties, delivery times, and international agreements.

Consultants, freelancers & advisors

Attention to scope, best efforts obligations, cancellation, payment, liability, and confidential information.


A legal document only has value if it suits your practice. That is why we look not only at the text, but also at how you use the document in your business.

Common mistakes with legal documents

A legal document often seems simple, but small errors can have major consequences later on. In practice, we see that entrepreneurs run the greatest risk when a document does not align well with their business, agreements, or way of working.

  • Using a standard document that does not suit the company
  • Forgot important agreements regarding payment, delivery, liability, or termination
  • Have a document generated without legal review
  • Continuing to use old documents while the company has changed
  • Not knowing how the document should be used correctly in practice

A legal document only prevents problems if it suits your situation. That is why we look not only at the text, but also at your company, agreements, and risks.

Why is a standard document often not enough?

Because a standard document does not take into account your industry, customers, risks, and specific agreements, important provisions may be missing or not align well with your practice.

Can I create a legal document myself using AI?

AI can assist in creating text, but does not independently assess whether the document is legally appropriate, complete, and usable for your business. Legal review therefore remains important.

When do I need to have my document checked?

Have your document checked if your business has changed, you have new customers or services, you have doubts about existing agreements, or the document has not been updated for a long time.

Will I also receive an explanation about the use of the document?

Yes. We explain how to use the document in practice, what to look out for, and which steps are important to prevent disputes afterwards.
