Is pro bono also pro lucrum? Doing well by letting your human capital do good

Abstract

Many professionals derive value from engaging in pro bono work, which is also supported by a large and increasing number of employers. Using data from the legal industry, we find that firms' sustained commitment to pro bono and employee satisfaction with pro bono increases firm profit performance, and that the latter effect is moderated by key human capital strategy variables.
