The City Corporation leads by
example, so as part of its commitment to Corporate Community
Involvement it established its own employee volunteering
programme. The programme is linked to the City Corporation’s
core values of working in partnership with its neighbours to
reduce levels of deprivation and social exclusion encountered
in many of the surrounding boroughs.
All staff are entitled to take 14 hours of work time each year
to get involved in approved volunteering activities and are
encouraged to use volunteering as a learning and development tool
to help achieve key competencies as demonstrated in appraisals.
An annual Employee Volunteering Awards programme celebrates the
outstanding contribution that City Corporation volunteers make to
the local communities.
