What is Corporate Volunteering?
Corporate volunteering refers to the voluntary work carried out by employees of a company during or outside their working hours for a charitable organisation, either on a one-off or regular basis.
The employer releases its employees from work for this period so that they can volunteer for a good cause. For companies, corporate volunteering is often a corporate citizenship measure to demonstrate social commitment, achieve CSR goals and motivate and retain employees who can expand their skills through their voluntary work. Corporate volunteering also offers great potential for associations, provided that the assignments are well planned and have a lasting impact.
