On my travels workplaces will ask how they can create a "good workplace culture". A good workplace culture should be the goal for every company. I have observed a myriad of benefits that a good workplace culture can have. Safety is better, worker attrition is low, worker's pride in their job is high, etc. One simple method of facilitating a workplace culture is to get the workers to interact with each other away from their jobs and their workplace responsibilities. What better way than for employees to work together for the benefit of the local community. As Gränges Americas Inc. shows us with their great post. When workplaces have volunteer opportunities for the their employees everyone wins. It is these simple volunteer opportunities that allow employees to deal with their coworkers away from the stress of work. Job titles mean little when one is volunteering. Why, because employees are working together to complete a task. These events allows individuals to get to know their coworker(s) on a way that they cannot at their workplace. This interpersonal connection that is achieved can provide so many rewards to either growing or maintaining a good work culture. Keep up the good work Gränges Americas Inc. ! I do love your posts.

Employer community responsibility refers to the obligation that businesses have to contribute positively to the communities in which they operate. This responsibility goes beyond simply making profits and encompasses various actions aimed at improving the well-being of the community and addressing social, environmental, and economic challenges. Employer community responsibility is about recognizing the interconnectedness between businesses and the communities they serve and taking proactive steps to contribute positively to the social, economic, and environmental well-being of those communities. By fulfilling their community responsibilities, employers can build trust, strengthen relationships, and create shared value for both their businesses and the communities in which they operate. Thank you to Second Harvest Food Bank of Middle Tennessee for letting our team in Huntingdon including Ryan Brockman, Connor Pinson, Rachel Carter, Hannah Belew, Erik Belew, Joseph Richardson, and many more be involved in such a wonderful outing. #Secondharvest #communityinvolvement #volunteers
