Assumption of Risk and Waiver of Liability Relating to Coronavirus/COVID-19

The novel Coronavirus/COVID-19 is an extremely contagious disease that has been declared a worldwide pandemic by the World Health Organization. I am aware of the highly contagious nature of bacterial and viral diseases including, without limitation, COVID-19 and the risk that I may be exposed to and contract a Disease by my volunteering for HFHGN and participating in activities where I may come in close proximity with others. I understand and acknowledge that despite HFHGN’s reasonable efforts to mitigate such dangers, volunteer activities may result in exposure to COVID-19 which can result in health complications or conditions, severe illness, hospitalization, admission to an intensive care unit, long-lasting or permanent new health conditions, disability and even death. In addition to the releases and waivers herein, I expressly assume the risk that I may be exposed to or infected by COVID- 19 and hereby release, covenant not to sue, discharge and defend and hold harmless HFHGN from any and all claims, liabilities, actions, damages, costs or expenses of any kind, directly or indirectly, arising out of or relating thereto, whether or not caused by negligence of HFHGN.

I hereby grant and convey unto HFHGN all right, title and interest in any and all photographs and video/audio/electronic recordings of me, including as to my name, image and voice, made by or on behalf of HFHGN during my activities with HFHGN, including, but not limited to, the right to use such materials for any purpose and to any royalties, proceeds or other benefits derived from them. I understand that I will not have any ownership interest in or to such photographs, images and/or recordings, I have not been provided or promised any compensation to me, and I hereby waive any rights, privileges or claims based on any right of publicity, privacy, ownership or any other rights arising, relating to or resulting from the photographs, images and/or recordings. I understand and agree that this paragraph also applies to my minor child(ren) who are volunteering.

If for any reason I believe that my working as a volunteer for HFHGN might endanger myself or others, or I have knowledge of or suspect any dishonest, deceptive, illegal or unethical activities, I must report this to the Construction Director immediately at the site, the CAO and/or the Human Resources Director. This might include, among other things, improper use of agency property, communicable diseases, physical impairments, and medication (prescription and/ or otherwise that might impair my judgment). I am volunteering for HFHGN at my own risk, and I have read the HFHGN Safety Manual.

If I encounter an injured person, I should not attempt to provide medical attention to the person, unless I am a licensed medical professional. I must notify the person’s listed below immediately. I understand and agree to adhere by HFHGN policies and will not conduct myself in actions that may discriminate against or harass others. I also understand that in the event my behavior or actions are determined by HFHGN staff as not in keeping with the Habitat mission, HFHGN staff reserve the right to relieve me of my volunteer duties indefinitely and escort me off of HFHGN property.
