Engagement in community investment activities leads to employees who are significantly more likely to find their work interesting and also credit their engagement to helping them manage people more effectively.

Employability

The homeless, ex-offenders, homeless ex-servicemen, the over 50s, the disabled, lone parents, those who have spent prolonged periods in longterm care, and those from deprived areas are often the last people to be considered for employment. Business in the Community aims to challenge employers to explore the business case for engaging and employing excluded groups and then put it into practice.
