General Event Expectations for Community Services Workers

Our Corner allows those individuals who are registered with us to complete court-ordered community service to participate in ‘Clean Team’ events. This is an opportunity to complete hours outside of regular shifts and participate in our double hours program.

You will report to the Clean Team Manager or Team Lead at the designated meeting location at the designated time. Failure to arrive on time may result in ineligibility to work that shift.
You will sign in at the beginning of the shift and out at the end of the shift with the Clean Team Manager or Team Lead. This is your timesheet. The sign in sheet will be turned in to the Executive Director at the end of each event. It may take up to 48 hours for the hours you completed at a special event to be counted towards your total required hours.
You will check in with the Clean Team Manager or Team Lead at least once every hour and before taking a break. Breaks are limited to 15 minutes. Failure to check in with the Clean Team Manager or the Team Lead may result in you being signed out and hours exceeding the check in time not counted.
Smoking is not allowed during a shift or on the event grounds. Smoking should be done off the event grounds and on breaks only. No cigarette butts will be littered while smoking on breaks.

You will look presentable while working at special events and comply with the Our Corner event work dress code. This includes:
- A t-shirt or long-sleeved shift that you do not mind getting dirty or sweaty in with a safety vest (Safety vest will be provided by Our Corner)
- Pants or shorts with no rips
- Closed-toed shoes
- Reusable water bottle
- Sunscreen or other sun protection is recommended
You will act with courtesy to the public and be professional while representing Our Corner and the Clean Team.
You will perform proactive work and will work as a team to clean up assigned areas.
Cleaning up public events can sometimes be hard work. You will be primarily hauling trash bags, picking up litter, and you will get sweaty and dirty. However, the reason you are here is because you have shown that you can maintain a positive attitude, even while performing hard work. Thank you!
