Abstract

Corporate volunteering supports and encourages employees’ involvement in community. The paper provides a better understanding of how volunteering can be used in business practices and summarizes the key benefits and challenges of corporate volunteering. Furthermore, the paper offers a broader perspective to the current corporate volunteering practice in Romania highlighting that although it shows an upward trend, it is not as prevalent as in other countries in the world.
