Office & Workplace at Department of Transport and Planning

Our office is small and pretty old but it's well maintained and has been retrofitted with necessary modern appliances. Dress code is fairly relaxed; neat casual. Main rule is that you need long sleeves and pants to protect from sunburn on site visits.

The floor I was on was terrible. They are refurbishing it, but giving to another team afterward. Even though I am rotating out of that team. There is no where else to go and trying to shove a whole branch onto half a floor is ridiculous. Dress code - Business casual

The office is especially convenient for me as I live close by but if I did have to commute it is across the road from Parliament Station making it super accessible. It has all the facilities I could need and more. We often have Surveyors in and out of the office doing field work in high vis so we don't have a strict dress code but I usually wear a buttoned shirt and slacks/chinos.

Our office is less than five minutes away from a central train station in the CBD, close to public transport, paid parking, cafes and shops. The office facilities are new, spacious, clean, accessible and well maintained. The dress code is business casual.

nice facilities, not too modern but functional. Good kitchen and break areas. dress code is smart casual, however I have never heard anything about dress code, unless we are doing a site visit where proper PPE is required.

Offices are good. Basic setup (desks, chairs, screens & peripherals) are all reasonably modern and functional, though not remarkable. Easy access to meeting spaces, though more private rooms would be good. Kitchen/lunch area reasonably well equipped. Office is in a good location re: transport and nearby amenities. Main downside is a lack of personal storage space (eg, lockers). Dress code is reasonably casual.

Very nice location in the CBD, especially 2 minutes' walk from southern cross station which makes everyone's life so much easier. Much appreciated.

Location is great and central but the space and facilities are pretty poor. Outdated office equipment, not enough desks, minimal kitchenette freebies. The dress code varies depending on the area. My area is closest to smart casual.

The office is in an ideal location, next to Public Transport and shopping centres, The interior is extremely modern. The only downside is the lack of employee parking.

great facilities and smart casual as the dress code. Especially as we are only in 2-3 days a week people tend to be a bit more formal.

There is a lot of flexibility in how employees can achieve the required work hours. I usually start around 7:30 to be able to finish around 3:30. Others work longer hours to only work 9 days in a fortnight.

Different department's had different qualities of workplace. Some are highly modernized, stylized and environmentally friendly, others are older and need some renovations. Dress code also varied but tends towards business casual which I enjoy.

Office of my substantive role is fantastic - new furnishings and great views. However, this varies highly on department, floor level etc. Have also been in some quite awful buildings.

I really like them. Though some improvements can be made in some of the VPS offices statewide.

Office is quite old, but necessary facilities are there Location is convenient with public transport, and just outside of the CBD centre so less traffic. Dress code is business casual

It is very clean and spacious, as well as many desk and rooms where you can work so that you don't always have to work at your desk.

The R2 office was pretty poor. Hot desking was required for all. I understand that updating the office was an ongoing issue for the VSBA. (4/10) The R1 office was very good. I had my own sit/stand desk and a desk near a window for natural light which was perfect for my sensory sensitivities. The office always felt very clean and the kitchen had great amenities. (10/10) The R3 office is also good. All desks are sit/stand, but our team shares desks so I don't always sit at the same one. Kitchen areas are kept quite clean. Ability to book private rooms when necessary too which is good. (8/10)
