In the last decades, several indicators are showing the inadequacy of countries' economic models. Changes in these models are necessary to contemplate the concept of sustainable development. In this sense, the 17 Sustainable Development Goals were published by United Nations to guide companies, countries and people. Volunteer actions are important initiatives for this. This kind of initiative can be described as the act of helping someone, aiming to contribute to a fairer society in which charity and citizenship are present. The main objective of this study is to analyze the main aspects that influence Brazilian companies' employees to participate in volunteer programs and, to identify how these aspects may be grouped into factors. Initially, a bibliographic study was carried out to identify the main aspects that influence the participation of companies' employees in volunteer programs. With this information, a questionnaire was structured and used in a survey. Data analysis was performed via exploratory factor analysis (EFA) and five from seven aspects analyzed were validated. They are grouped into two factors named “personal aspects” and “institutional aspects”. The first factor better explains the aspects mentioned. The results presented here may be useful for managers of volunteer programs and researchers interested in the theme.

了解影响巴西公司员工参与志愿活动的方面：对可持续发展的贡献

在过去的几十年里，一些指标显示出各国经济模式的不足。这些模型的变化对于考虑可持续发展的概念是必要的。从这个意义上说，联合国发布了17个可持续发展目标，以指导公司、国家和人民。志愿者行动是这方面的重要举措。这种倡议可以被描述为帮助某人的行为，旨在为一个存在慈善和公民身份的更公平的社会做出贡献。本研究的主要目的是分析影响巴西公司员工参与志愿者计划的主要方面，并确定如何将这些方面归类为因素。原来，进行了一项书目研究，以确定影响公司员工参与志愿计划的主要方面。有了这些信息，问卷就被设计出来并在调查中使用。通过探索性因素分析 (EFA) 进行数据分析，并对分析的七个方面中的五个进行了验证。它们分为两个因素，称为“个人方面”和“制度方面”。第一个因素更好地解释了上述方面。这里展示的结果可能对志愿者项目的管理者和对该主题感兴趣的研究人员有用。它们分为两个因素，称为“个人方面”和“制度方面”。第一个因素更好地解释了上述方面。这里展示的结果可能对志愿者项目的管理者和对该主题感兴趣的研究人员有用。它们分为两个因素，称为“个人方面”和“制度方面”。第一个因素更好地解释了上述方面。这里展示的结果可能对志愿者项目的管理者和对该主题感兴趣的研究人员有用。
