Deloitte & Touche LLP plans to launch a pilot program in Chicago and two other cities that will allow workers to take up to three paid days off to volunteer for community service in 2003. The New York-based professional services firm, which employs 2,300 workers in Chicago, is also testing the program in Boston and Atlanta.
The company plans to gauge the program's popularity with employees before rolling it out to its more than 100 offices worldwide.
