OVERALL RDC REQUIRED JOB DUTIES
How the RDC runs their department is pretty much up to them. However there are certain duties that apply to ALL RDCs. These include:
- Make your RDC program one that provides value and interest to the region!
- Monthly reports to the RDC Program Director are due on or before the 5th of EVERY month. Missing 2 reports in a row will get the RDC a warning. Missing 3 or more reports in a row is grounds for dismissal from the position. (BUT, the RDC Program Director can be very understanding if they know what they are being understanding about. If circumstances cause you to miss a report or two … don’t wait until you get a warning to call or write and say you have been very busy with something. Instead, you should send a note, e‐mail or regular mail saying what is causing you to miss this report before it is due or as soon after it is due as possible.) Missing 3 reports in any one calendar year is grounds for dismissal.
- Post to the Facebook AT LEAST every two weeks
- Stay in contact with those ships who provide you with names and addresses of a contact person. Don’t make communication a one way street. After a while your contact person will get tired of sending in reports if they never know if it arrived or not. When you get a report, let the person reporting know.
- Send a recent photo of yourself if you are chosen for the RDC webpage.
