National Volunteer Week

An employee volunteer program can improve the culture of an organization. Studies find that a company culture of volunteering can boost employee morale, workplace atmosphere and brand perception. In addition to the value of the service itself, it gives your employees a chance to get to know one another better. It can be challenging to connect during the workday, and volunteering gives employees a chance to find common ground.

Businesses often do not have proper employee volunteer programs in place, and employees tend not to volunteer because their employers don't give them dedicated time for it during the workday. But those businesses are missing out: According to a study from Deloitte, a company culture of volunteerism doesn't just help others, but also improves morale within the company.
It is a goal of many businesses to give back and do more for the community through corporate social responsibility (CSR) programs or initiatives. Involving your employees in volunteer efforts is a good way to build employee engagement and your brand while serving the community. If there has ever been a time for volunteerism – both hands-on and online – to thrive in local communities across the United States, it is now.
Showing employees that you appreciate them can improve engagement, retention, productivity and morale. You can demonstrate your appreciation by hosting events, happy hours, volunteer opportunities and annual retreats. This article is for small business owners and team leaders who want to know some creative ways to recognize their employees.
Unpaid internships are legal if the intern is the "primary beneficiary" of the arrangement, as determined by the seven-point Primary Beneficiary Test. If an employer is the primary beneficiary, the intern is considered an employee under the Fair Labor Standards Act and entitled to minimum wage. Some states have certain requirements for unpaid internships, such as affiliation with academic institutions.
