WORKYOURWAY INSIDER VIEW

Flexible working arrangements allow staff to balance their professional and personal lives, making them healthier and happier, resulting in higher productivity and retention rates. Through a range of tools and an organization-wide policy, we are ingraining flexible work across UNICEF, which includes flexible working hours, compressed work schedules, teleworking, part-time work and job sharing.

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.

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

Full-time: A full-time employee works between 35 and 40 hours per week, usually on a permanent contract.

WORKLOAD OPTIONS WE OFFER

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.

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.
