SUSTAINABILITY REPORT 2015

“our people... are the key to
our collective success.”
Work life balance
Work life balance means different things to different people,
and, as a result we provide a variety of options that allow
our employees to optimise work life balance, as it applies
to them, their families and their non-work related pursuits.
As an ‘Employer of Choice’, we believe that providing
our employees with our support across work and family
responsibilities fosters a sense of wellbeing that, in turn,
translates to a happy and productive workplace. We
closely monitor staff annual leave and long service
leave balances to ensure that leave is being taken
on a regular basis for optimal work life balance and
family time.
Flexibility at work
Tassal provides diversity in career options across
our operations, allowing individuals to select
from location, function, career paths options
and employment types. We provide a variety
of employment and roster options, and the
option for employees to transfer or relocate
within or across functions.
Local management team members
have the ability to work at the individual
team level to be flexible within working
practices, for example, allowing team
members to take time to attend school
activities. These flexible work options
extend to the provision of technology
that allows for ‘smart’ working
environments, allowing most
employees to attend meetings
remotely or work from home from
time to time.
