To complement the corporate level CSR programs, we also have Metso volunteers program. Metso employees have a strong wish to do good and to have a positive influence on the surrounding communities where we are operating. Metso volunteers program is based on a policy that allows all our employees to use up to three hours of work time in a year for volunteer activities.
The goal of the program is to set up local volunteer projects around the world where our employees can donate their time and engage in volunteer activities. The projects are led by local coordinators. Currently, several volunteer activities are taking place in different countries, for example in Australia, Brazil, Canada, China and South Africa.
