Our society has a single category of membership. As part of the risk management strategy of the society, new applicants
have to attend at least three official society trips before obtaining
membership. Once accepted, and all fees due paid, new members commence
evaluation and training under the supervision of the trip leaders who have full
authority over the granting of access to caves according to the members ability.
New members are also obliged to attend all safety and technical training
provided by the society.
The Committee of the Sydney Speleological Society Inc. has the authority and
obligation under the constitution to deal with membership related issues and has
the final say in who can become a member.
Trip leaders are considered as office bearers of the society for the duration of
the authorised trips.
SSS is fully insured against public liability claims. All society activities are
fully covered by the policy and the cost of the insurance is incorporated in our
membership and visitors' fee structure!
