Companies offering employees time off to volunteer

[AmericanPastoral]

Does anyone work for a company and volunteer to help out in school during work time? As described [[https://www.glassdoor.co.uk/blog/time-off-volunteer/ here]].

I'm in the pharmaceutical industry and my employer allows everyone 5 days a year to do STEM Ambassador volunteering.

I used to be in the water industry and we were allowed 5 days a year for any sort of community volunteering role.

5 days a year for community project volunteering

We can volunteer but only for charities so we can't help at state schools under out volunteering policy.

Thanks everyone. It would be great if more people knew about this scheme.
