Workplace Giving
Most employees find that work-life pressures leave little time to help their favourite charity or participate in local community events. Workplace giving is an easy and cost-effective way for businesses to support their employees, so that they can give to their favourite charity and make a difference in their community.
Through workplace giving employees can nominate an amount per week, fortnight or month through their company's payroll deduction system. To participate all you need to do is notify your pay office by completing this form: Payroll Deduction Form (PDF, 59KB)
Businesses that choose to match employee contributions help to keep CareFlight doctors in the air, build social capacity and are sharing with their employees a commitment and passion to 'giving back' to the community.
