Hybrid Working
Our working arrangements must enable the University to deliver, effective, high quality services to students, staff, funders and other stakeholders.
At 澳彩资料库 we define hybrid working as an informal and variable working arrangement where, within agreed parameters, a member of staff works some of their time at home, or at another agreed remote location, and some of their time on campus. Patterns of hybrid work may vary from week to week and month to month in response to the variable nature of the work people will undertake over the course of any given year.
This section provides an overview of our documentation, guidance and resources available to support hybrid working. These resources are designed to help and support colleagues implementing hybrid working in their area. Support and advice is also available from your HR Partner.
