We require child abuse history clearances of any volunteer before they are put in a position of authority over a child. Beyond that, keys only go to officers of the organization.

Subject: [TheThinkTank] Volunteer Background Checks
At Broke Spoke (Lexington) we are working to improve our volunteer process and how we create shift managers and dull out keys.
What type of checks (if any) do other shops use prior to handing out shop keys to volunteers?
Any background, employment history, references, etc? Some of these might be barriers as we work with a lot of folks who are in recovery centers, shelters, etc.
Any help is greatly appreciated.
Cheers
Tim
