How to Create a Stellar Employee Volunteer Program

If your company currently has an employee volunteer program (EVP), that’s amazing! EVPs increase employee satisfaction and retention, and can be a key tool for recruiting top talent. A formal EVP also allows you to track results, so you can easily show the world your company’s impact. And our favorite part: implementing EVP tools simplifies your tasks, so you have more time to spend out in your community.

If you don’t have a formal program set up, you may be wondering, “Is now the right time?” To find out, ask yourself the following:

• Are our consumers or business contacts asking what we are doing for our community?
• Are we seeing an increase in the number of employees asking each other to support a charity?
• Are we seeing an increase in the number of employees asking to volunteer?
• Are we losing talented employees to the job market or having trouble retaining employees?
• Am I or my coworkers spending a lot of time on volunteer event coordination?

If you answered “yes” to any of these, it’s time to consider a formal EVP program. We put together 5 easy steps to building a successful EVP to guide you through the process. Even if you already run a great EVP, you may find some new ideas.
