Flexible work

We recognise that work is only one part of our lives, and that we need flexibility so we can balance work with other important parts of our lives. Our approach to flexible work arrangements takes into account the diverse circumstances of individuals, and balances it with our commitment to maintaining a vibrant, healthy workplace culture. Our role specific arrangements rely on trust between supervisors and their staff and a demonstration that work outcomes continue to be met. Flexibility is enabled by our culture, behaviours, systems, processes and services (including access to technology), the individual’s capacity to work independently and their ability to actively contribute to the workplace. .

Flexible working options include:

  • A hybrid working model, where our people work some days at home under an agreed arrangement, and some days in the office. This option is used by 42% of our people. 
  • Flex-time, which allows us to set our own patterns of attendance at work within specified limits (APS 1-6 employees). This option is used by 43% of our people. 
  • Flexible working hours, where we manage our working hours in a flexible way on an ad hoc or longer term basis, and to manage heavy workloads (Executive Level and SES employees). This option is used by 57% of our people. 
  • The possibility of working compressed hours
  • Part-time hours, which suit those of us who wish or need to work less than 37.5 hours per week. This option is used by 20% of our people.
