Flexible Working Approach

Agile working is important so our colleagues can work in the most effective way whilst ensuring they have a rewarding career coupled with a healthy work/life balance. It also helps us manage and adapt to the ever changing needs of our business and the fast-paced world around us. Flexible working options available are dependent on the role.

WORKING PATTERNS WE OFFER

Part-time: An employee who works fewer hours than a full-time worker. There is no specific number of hours that makes someone part-time, but a full-time worker will usually work 35-40 hours a week.

Flexi-Time: This is a working schedule that allows employees to choose when they start and end their workday, usually to accomodate an individuals needs and other commitments outside of work.

Core Hours / Staggered Hours: Core hours refer to specific times an organisation requires an employee to work, for example 10am to 4pm. Staggered hours are when an employee has different start and finish times from other workers.

Compressed Hours: This is where an employee increases the volume of hours worked each day in order to reduce the number of days worked.

WORKLOAD OPTIONS WE OFFER

Reduced Hours: This is a provision given by an organisation to an employee to work for a lesser number of hours as compared to the mandatory working hours set for all employees.

Job Share: An arrangement where two people, or sometimes more, are retained on a part-time or reduced-time basis to perform a job normally fulfilled by one person working full-time.

Phased Retirement: This refers to an approach that gives employees the ability to manage the transition from full-time employment to retirement.

WORKPLACE OPTIONS WE OFFER

Hybrid Working (Office / Home): This means an employee splits their time between the workplace (usually office based) and remote working (usually at home).

Remote or Mobile Working: This is a type of working arrangement that allows an employee to work from a remote location outside of corporate offices.

Work From Home (WFH): This is where an employee has the ability to set up their workspace at home, and manage their work without the need to go to the office.

Office Working: This refers to an employee being physically present in the workplace to fulfil their contractual responsibilities.

LIFE EVENTS WE OFFER

Career Breaks / Sabbatical: These are an extended periods of agreed absence from work. The term is often used interchangeably with "sabbatical", which is generally taken to mean a shorter period of leave of several weeks or months.

Shared Parental Leave: This allows parents to share a portion of leave and pay with their partners to care for children from birth, usually until their first birthday.

*Please note that not all flexible working options may not be available for every role.
