Employee Volunteering Program
Agenda:
Sony Mobile cares about the local communities where our offices and employees reside. Through our Employee Volunteering program, Sony Mobile aspires to contribute with our employees’ day-to-day skills to local communities as well as to create unique opportunities for our employees to be inspired.
Action:
In late 2013 Sony Mobile introduced its Employee Volunteering Program which entitles employees to take 3 paid days off work each year to participate in volunteering activities which support local/global communities. In order for the new program to be truly activated we hold volunteering fairs which introduce local volunteering opportunities at the different sites around the world.
Impact:
At the volunteering fairs, our employees around the world get the opportunity to meet and start to engage in activities by various local non-profit organizations.
Our activities from Apr 2018 to Mar 2019:
- 54 employees have participated in volunteering
- All regions – Japan, EMEA, Asia and Americas – actively promoted the Employee Volunteering
- A total of 670 hours of our working time have been applied for employee volunteering
