<p>@colorado_mom - What I meant was that a not-for-profit (I prefer that term rather than non-profit. I know companies that are non-profit, but it isn’t on purpose! Just a silly personal thing) can’t abuse the situation either, such as requiring certain hours or a lot of hours. Of course if one is truly a volunteer they should pretty much come and go as they please, within reason. I do imagine not-for-profits get a bit more leeway, even if technically they have to stick to the same 6 point test for-profits do. The key statement on this appears at the end of the document:</p>

To me that implies something like “We are giving you leeway, but don’t take advantage”.</p>
