    Voluntary welfare measures are efforts by employers, employee unions, and non-governmental organizations to improve living standards for workers outside of what is legally required. Examples include employers providing housing, transportation, healthcare, education, and recreation facilities. Trade unions also engage in voluntary welfare work like operating hospitals, adult education programs, credit cooperatives, and holiday homes. Self-help groups aid welfare through microfinancing, empowering women, providing education and training, and generating employment.
