LICANDRO, Oscar D.  e  YAPOR, Stefanía. Study of the motivations of corporate volunteers through open-ended questions. estud.gerenc. [online]. 2019, vol.35, n.150, pp.70-80. ISSN 0123-5923.  https://doi.org/10.18046/j.estger.2019.150.3159.

The objective of the research was to identify the motivations of corporate volunteers and analyze whether they depend on personal or contextual factors. Unlike most of the research on this topic, conducted through structured questionnaires, the motivations were studied through open-ended questions. A self-administered survey was applied to 185 volunteers from 8 companies that in Uruguay implement corporate volunteering programs. The results ratified some of the conclusions of the research carried out by closed-ended questions, questioned some others, and provided evidence on motivations not identified in them. It was also found that the motivations are independent of each other, that they are not associated with personal factors of the volunteers, and that significant differences are registered between volunteers from different companies.

Palavras-chave : corporate volunteering; personal volunteering; motivations; volunteers; open-ended questions.
