Support Worker THE BENEFITS OF WORKING FOR A CHARITY Support Worker Working for a charity can offer a range of unique benefits compared to working for a commercial business. If it is your first time applying for a job at a charity organisation below are some of the notable differences between us and a commercial, corporate organisation: Sense of Purpose: Many people find working for a charity to be more personally fulfilling because they contribute to a cause or mission that aligns with their values. The sense of purpose derived from making a positive impact on society can be a powerful motivator. Social Impact: Charities typically focus on addressing social issues, whether it's healthcare, education, poverty, or the environment. Working for a charity allows employees to be part of efforts to create positive social change and improve the lives of others. Diverse and Inclusive Environment: Charities often have a strong commitment to diversity and inclusion, reflecting the diverse communities they serve. Employees may find themselves working alongside people with varied backgrounds and perspectives. Skill Development: Working for a charity may provide opportunities for employees to develop a wide range of skills. With limited resources, employees often take on multiple roles and responsibilities, allowing for skill diversification and professional growth. Community Engagement: Charities are usually deeply connected to the communities they serve. Employees may have the chance to engage directly with beneficiaries, volunteers, and community partners, fostering a strong sense of community and interconnectedness. Flexibility and Passion-Driven Work: While this may not be universally true, some charities offer a more flexible work environment, recognising the passion and commitment of their employees. This can lead to increased job satisfaction and work-life balance. Positive Workplace Culture: Charities often foster a positive and collaborative workplace culture where employees share a common goal and work together to achieve it. This sense of camaraderie can contribute to a supportive and encouraging work environment. You are not making money for a board of Directors: At Walsingham, any surplus funds generated by the charity goes back into the care of the service users not pay bonuses to directors. Job Stability: According to Tori Utley's article for Forbes magazine in 2016, charities are less likely to take risks when expanding, so are less likely to suffer financially compared to companies that focus purely on profit. Many non-profit organisations do not have private owners, and they do not issue stock or pay dividends as rewards. Support Worker
