What is the best structure of non-profit workers?
@evan another question is type of pay . . . a small stipend or a full salary with benefits.
@evan I've worked with, for, and in a lot of ways this depends on the mission of the organization and it's size. There's no one size fits all
@evan labor is still labor and should be compensated appropriately
@evan Would this be enforced with a maximum number of volunteers? Would that be counted by work hours or by heads?
@babble_endanger what do you think would be the right way to define it?
@evan People should have the choice to volunteer.
@evan
The idea of working somewhere that is actively helping the world in tangible ways, not deriving profit from their business, and ensuring a living standard for those doing the work is the dream, my friend.
@evan I'm thinking It Depends
An advocacy group or social services group? Most of them should be paid I think.
Out in the community doing works? Probably a buttload of volunteers.
A member organization (think makerspace or non profit gym)? Few if any paid staff.
