For many and varied reasons, some employees require flexibility in their personal work arrangements. This could be on a short term or a long term basis. Flexible work arrangements can have benefits for employers, employees and their families. Flexible work arrangements can improve employee work-life balance and help Penfold Motors retain skilled staff.

Penfold Motors will give due consideration to all employee requests for flexible arrangements. Flexible arrangements could include:

• Part-time work
• Earlier or later starting and finishing times
• Job sharing
• Extending unpaid leave when paid leave entitlements have been exhausted
• Allowing employees to work additional hours to make up for time taken for parental or carer responsibilities
• Working from home

Flexible arrangements could be for a one-off circumstance or could be ongoing.

The nature of the service delivery requirements of various Penfold Motors departments means that it will not always be possible to accommodate specific requests for flexible work arrangements. However, in all cases, Penfold Motors will properly assess the request and the impacts on both the employee and the employer of granting or not granting the request.
