Job-sharing
Job sharing is used by employers as a way of offering reduced hours while maintaining the covering of a
full-time post and thereby helping with the recruitment or retention of staff. For employees, job sharing
is often a way of remaining in a relatively senior post while working part-time.
Issues to be considered when finding a job-share partner include:
• Decisions on dividing the hours and responsibilities of the post;
• Communication and overlapping of job functions between the job share partners; and
• What happens if one job share partner resign?
