The local community is an important stakeholder affected by a company's presence. Financial impacts, such as job creation and boosting of the local economy, in addition to physical and environmental impacts due to the company's presence and its productive activities, and social impacts, as they affect the lives of the employees and their families. Local communities also affect the company through the people who make it operate.

WEG Volunteering Program
Being a volunteer is to give your time, work and talent to the causes of the community and social interest, thus improving the life quality of the people affected by such action.
Volunteering is a two way street, where generosity and self-giving are not the only things involved, but also the opening for new experiences, opportunities for learning, pleasure in being useful, expansion of social networking and professional development.
WEG Volunteering programs of the Volunteer Heart offer an opportunity for the employees that want to take part in the community, conveying knowledge by means of their experiences and skills.
