Center for Corporate Auditing, Responsibility and Management policy Authoring/Postmaterialism policy

Introduction
The postmaterialism policy has the intent to make a postmaterialist attitude an educational goal. The goal is, of course, not to brain wash an employee into becoming a convinced and consequent postmaterialist, but to motivate the employees as a group to consider a postmaterialist attitude and also to encourage philosophical dispute.

Donations

 * 1) The employer should recommend an adequate donation level of employees (e.g. in relation to church tax), either on salary statements or similar communications.
 * 2) The employer should educate employees about sensible donation opportunities and donation goals and invite employees to make donations regularly or systematically.
 * 3) The employer should set an example and donate to worthy causes and inform the employees about donations made by the employer.
 * 4) The employer should not collect donations inside the company but leave that to certified organizations.

Educational measures

 * 1) The employer should offer continuing education for the topics corporate social responsibility, corporate volunteering and postmaterialism.
 * 2) Employees should be invited to choose these educational offers and not to see other educational measures as generally more career-enhancing.

Corporate citizenship

 * 1) The employer should set an example and implement a corporate volunteering policy.
