- Appreciating non-monetarized work
- Raising appreciation of unpaid civil service
- Strengthening status of volunteers
Description
Valuing volunteer services involves systematically recognizing, measuring, and integrating the economic and social contributions of volunteers into organizational and community planning. This strategy addresses the underestimation and invisibility of volunteer work by applying standardized valuation methods, ensuring fair resource allocation, informed decision-making, and enhanced motivation for volunteers. By quantifying volunteer impact, organizations can better advocate for support, optimize program effectiveness, and remedy gaps in service delivery caused by overlooked or undervalued volunteer efforts.
Context
Around 26 million people in the UK have jobs. The remainder -- and far more women than men -- do work for which they are not paid, like housework.
