Insights: Leveraging the Link Between Corporate Volunteerism, Retention and the Bottom Line

If millennials ─ employees between the ages of 21 and 35 ─ frequently participate in company-sponsored volunteer programs, they are more likely to feel a strong connection and sense of belonging at work, according to the 2011 Deloitte Volunteer IMPACT Survey. How does that bond manifest? Through higher career satisfaction, increased pride and loyalty, and a higher likelihood to rate their corporate culture as positive. It all adds up to a discernable difference for companies interested in driving the "double bottom line" ─ and making both a business and a social return.
The latest episode of Deloitte Insights features a conversation among Sean O'Grady, Insights Moderator, Evan Hochberg, national director of Community Involvement, Deloitte Services LP, and Barbara Adachi, national managing director of Human Capital, Deloitte Consulting LLP. Tune in to learn more about the survey and the connection between volunteerism, employee engagement and the bottom line.
