ALLIANZ - BUSINESS BENEFITS OF CORPORATE SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITY

Who?
Allianz Insurance employs over 4000 people across a network of 20 offices in the UK and the company’s Head Office is situated in Guildford, Surrey. Allianz Insurance is one of the largest general insurers in the UK and part of the Allianz SE Group, one of the leading integrated financial services providers worldwide and the largest property and casualty insurer in the world.

What?
Through our community support programme Allianz:
  • Support charities and voluntary initiatives in the community that are relevant to our business objectives and brand values
  • Increase financial contributions through company donations, employee fundraising and payroll giving;
  • In 2012, 27 Allianz staff gave a total of 202 hours of time to support and inspire 1005 young people in Surrey via SATRO mentoring programmes, Junior and Senior Business Games, Global Trading Game and Careers Speed dating. Allianz have subsidised several SATRO events and have supported SATRO’s growth through its ‘Routes to Success’ Employee Leadership programme by developing a new database system for the charity.
So What?!
“Working with SATRO gives our employees the opportunity to get involved in a variety of events including facilitating at business games, attending careers workshops and mentoring. All of these programmes benefit both the students and the business volunteers. Mentoring in particular is a great way to develop new or potential new leaders as it helps develop communication, coaching and listening skills - and, it is also very rewarding”. Valerie Robinson, Allianz Community Affairs Advisor.
