Many employers recognise the value of giving back to their communities. Through Employer Supported Volunteering (ESV), companies can offer employees a set amount of time per year to dedicate to volunteering. This approach enables businesses to play an active role in supporting social good while giving employees the opportunity to make a meaningful difference.


This time can be used to support specific charities, social enterprises, community causes that resonate with the organisation’s mission, or even opportunities tied to skills development. Whether it’s sharing professional expertise or lending a helping hand, Employer Supported Volunteering benefits employees and communities alike.


Beyond benefiting local communities, Employer Supported Volunteering provides valuable advantages to both employees and businesses:

  • Skill development: Employees can gain new competencies, leadership experience, and practical knowledge through volunteer work.

  • Team engagement: Volunteering as a group fosters collaboration and strengthens workplace relationships.

  • Enhanced Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR): Companies can demonstrate their commitment to sustainability and social impact.

  • Boosted employee morale and job satisfaction: Staff feel more fulfilled knowing their workplace supports their desire to contribute to meaningful causes.

By integrating volunteering into company culture, businesses can create long-lasting partnerships with non-profits and community organisations, helping to address social challenges while reinforcing their own values.


Employer Supported Volunteering is about creating a lasting impact and fostering a workplace where employees feel empowered to drive positive change.
