Working Hours at Services Australia

Good flexibility in current role to WFH when needed (regularly 2 days a week WFH)

my team is flexible, but other areas within the agency are not

My team is flexible about working from home ad hoc. I work 2 days a week from home and am able to extend that in emergencies or to cater to my carer responsibilities or health problems.

My employer is extremely flexible with my working arrangements.

Although there is mandatory office attendance within my business stream, I have been supported and recognized for not only coming into the office frequently (especially starting out), but also in WFH. As someone that works 2 jobs, a lack of a hardline on office attendance increases my overall motivation to work. These means that I want to work every day that I can and have worked hard to ensure my overall outputs does not differ either working from home or the office. I'm also probably more introverted than most and make a concerted effort to ask for help when I unequivocally cannot find the answer somewhere else. Again, this has been recognized by the Data Exchange stream and I have felt because of this, I have been managing myself in my initial time with the agency.

I am able to leave at my agreed work time every day and am not required to stay back. If I am, I accrue flex and am able to use this if needing to attend personal appointments/leave early for other reasons etc. My company is fairly supportive of flexibility as long as reasonable notice is given.

I'm not too sure how flexible we are because I've never asked to change hours, but I think that I would like to decrease the amount I am working.

My work is very flexible. They are understanding of needs outside of work and are fully willing to help accomodate that and enable employee autonomy.

Work is not as flexible as I would like, making me go into the office where none of my team work 3 days a week

Depends entirely upon who you get as boss. My boss is an angel and I work in an area when I can come in whenever so long as I work 7.5 hours a day and give notice, but it's entirely dependent on your line manager to give you that luxury. Overtime at least at my level isn't expected.

I work my 7.5 hours and I can accrue flex when I want and how I want after having discussed with my manager. I also enjoy working from home two days a week. Occasionally I would say I can do my assigned tasks in less time than I must be at work but overall I am glad I can just do my 7.5 hours with no expectation of any more at my current working level

I enjoy being able to accrue and utilise flex time where possible. The hours are acceptable at 37.5 a week. It would be nice to be able to utilise part-time and/or flexible working arrangements more easily and work from home more often than not.

Very flexible, not yet WFM but few impediment to that

Show up when I want, leave when I want. Anything over 37.5 is coded as flex. Work from home twice a week if I need.

Very flexible within reason

Very flexible In addition to the normal leave entitlements there is flex time and annual leave half pay is also available

There are as stubborn as possible when it comes to WFH, even tho I have only one other person in my team in my office. Every day when I am in the office, I just think about the time wasted during the commute.

Very flexible. We accumulate flex-time when we work more than our usual hours. These can then be used for days off/half days/sleep ins etc. As long as you let your manager know and they are supportive you can take time off very flexibly. We can also take annual leave at half pay, and potentially buy additional annual leave days.

Usually I work 8-4:30. I am able to take flex and that allows me to take a Friday or Monday or both off every now and again so I can travel home to visit family. My team encourages a great work life balance and is accommodating to all team members situations.

Depending on what area you work in.
