About 45 percent of the 345 voluntary organizations in Beijing do not sign contracts with volunteers and many fail to provide insurance, according to a report from the Beijing Volunteer Federation.
The report was released on the 24th International Volunteer Day, which fell last Friday.
The report said volunteers offered over 200 million hours of service during the 2008 Summer Olympic Games.
