A chapter in The Palgrave Handbook of Corporate Social Responsibility, 2021, pp 471-498 from Springer

Abstract: Abstract Employee volunteering (EV) was introduced as employer-supported volunteering and now also covers employee-led volunteering initiatives. For employers, EV is usually embedded in the company’s corporate social responsibility (CSR) strategy in addressing social issues by involving employees. Research has shown that EV can fulfill intrinsic and extrinsic motives for employers in achieving their economic, social, and environmental performances simultaneously. As for employees, working for companies that allow them to do EV has given them more job satisfaction that enhance their organizational citizenship behavior (OCB). Globally, EV has achieved its importance as a way of companies to contribute to global issues and the achievements of Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). To contribute to EV discussions, this chapter covers several aspects of EV, including different terminologies used by researchers and companies; global trends of EV implementation; effective management of EV; impacts of EV to the employers, employees, and society; and challenges in EV implementation. To illustrate EV practices, this chapter highlights EV implementation in Indonesia based on a recent survey designed for gaining empirical evidence. In the conclusion, a virtuous cycle between EV, corporate sustainability, and SDGs is suggested.
