  • Volunteering Policy
    My Volunteering Policy The purpose of this policy is to outline the opportunities and procedures for Thomson Reuters employees to engage in community volunteering activities. By allowing all regular employees time off to volunteer, Thomson Reuters can continue to invest in its local communities, and have a meaningful impact on the world around us one community at a time. Thomson Reuters encourages employees from across the business to take part in volunteering activities with recognized charities and community organizations including accredited schools. To enable this we offer all regular full-time and part-time employees* time off with pay for at least 2 days or 16 hours per calendar year (pro-rated for part-time staff). *Part-time employees are eligible if their regularly scheduled hours are 20 or more per week. Multiply the number of hours worked in a day by two; the result is the annual number of hours eligible for paid time off to volunteer (4 hours a day x 2 = 8 hours a year). GUIDELINES FOR VOLUNTEERING Volunteering during working hours is at your manager’s discretion and subject to the needs of the business. You should obtain your manager’s approval to use paid time off to volunteer and then log your paid volunteer hours into My Community. For full details of how to apply for volunteering, read our My Volunteer FAQ in My Community. RECOGNIZED CHARITIES AND COMMUNITY ORGANIZATIONS Through this policy and our programs we support organizations that are registered as a charity not-for-profit or tax exempt organizations and accredited schools.

Wouldn’t a singular focus on affecting political change be more effective? A harsher criticism of the work we do is that it ‘normalizes’ the unsustainable status quo on the West Bank and Gaza.
