A recent German study has revealed a surprising fact: doing unpaid volunteer work<\/a><\/strong> outside of the bounds of your paid job not only has great mental health benefits<\/a><\/strong>, the extra helping of happiness and self-esteem can even boost your performance in your paid job, potentially even leading to a pay raise.<\/p>\n

Business Week<\/a> reports:<\/strong><\/p>\n

TUESDAY, Feb. 16 (HealthDay News) — Volunteer work offers mental health benefits and may even help you perform better in your paying job, the results of a German study show.<\/p>\n

The study included 105 people who worked an average of five days a week and who spent an average of 6.7 hours per week volunteering in activities ranging from fire departments to church groups.<\/p>\n

For two weeks, the participants completed two daily questionnaires, one after work and the other before going to bed. They detailed how much time they’d spent volunteering and recorded their feelings on need satisfaction, psychological detachment from work, learning experiences, and well-being at work.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

What do you think \u2013 what emotional<\/a><\/strong>, spiritual and even career benefits might volunteer work bring?<\/p>\n
