Public Sector Flexible Work Policy
The Department of Health has released a draft Flexible Work Policy for consultation.
The policy seeks to provide a framework for flexible work arrangements, including changes to work patterns, reduced hours, shift swaps, roster requests and working remotely from home.
The ANMF is currently reviewing the proposal and is seeking feedback from members before providing a formal response. View the latest update
