Employers
Workplace Giving programs allow employers to actively engage with their employees and make positive community contributions.
Some Australian employers have offered payroll or Workplace Giving since the 1940s. But only recently have the advantages of this donation model been fully explored.
Workplace Giving and corporate social responsibility
Employers engaged with Workplace Giving programs find them an ideal corporate social responsibility channel. Workplace Giving isn’t set and forget. Successful programs involve contribution right across the workplace, including:
- senior leadership encouragement
- enthusiastic charity champions
- active promotion and regular feedback
- opportunities to participate in activities such as volunteering
Most participating employers report their Workplace Giving program achieves high levels of employee engagement. Our feature workplace is just one success story.
Workplace Giving is an invaluable opportunity for business to forge firm community partnerships and achieve new levels of corporate social responsibility.
