Employees today expect a fair paycheck, but they also want to feel that they\u2019re helping to make the world a better place. In fact, a study conducted in 2016 revealed that 75% of millennials claimed they would be willing to take a pay cut to work for a socially responsible company, and 64% said they\u2019d pass on a job offer if they felt a company didn\u2019t have strong corporate responsibility practices. One way to meet this growing expectation is by creating a VTO policy, also known as a volunteer time off policy.<\/p>\n
If you\u2019ve yet to implement a policy that encourages your employees to volunteer, then you\u2019ve come to the right place. In this post, we are going to discuss what VTO means, and what the benefits and drawbacks are of implementing a policy in your business. We will also share some volunteer time off best practices to help you design a policy that works for you, your employees, and for your wider community as a whole.<\/p>\n
