Job Sharing Policy and Procedure - September 2020
In this section
1. Policy Introduction
Carmarthenshire County Council is fully committed to equality of opportunity in employment. The aim of the Job Share Policy is to provide opportunities to employees who prefer to work less hours or are unable to work full-time; to pursue and maintain a career within the Council; and enhance opportunities for flexible working at all levels within the organisation.
The Council recognises that job sharing can offer positive solutions to employees and the Council as the skills and experience of an individual can be retained and enhanced rather than be lost or underused.
The Council supports a range of temporary and permanent flexible working arrangements, to enable employees to achieve a balance between work and personal life. Job sharing is one of these arrangements.
