OUR STAFF We have a small but dedicated team of paid staff, the majority of whom work at Surf House at Bondi, with a number of others based in other states. Staff in state centres and branches report to their own boards and management team and are therefore not included in this section. For an organisational structure and staff list see page 57. REMUNERATION We seek to remunerate our employees consistent with the not-for-profi t sector and our research indicates that salaries offered are in line with those offered by similar organisations. Our remuneration includes fringe benefi t packages, which allow for SLSA, within Australian Taxation Offi ce guidelines, to provide a proportion of an employee’s income as a tax exempt fringe benefi t. During the reporting period, SLSA engaged an outside company, Advantage Salary Packaging, which has resulted in all employees receiving additional benefi ts under these arrangements. PERFORMANCE AND SALARY REVIEWS Employees participate in twice-yearly performance reviews with their manager and/or the Chief Executive Offi cer. These reviews are one of the various factors taken into account by the CEO in the annual salary reviews. We do not have remuneration incentive arrangements. WORKPLACE RELATIONS As noted in last year’s report, a new SLSA Collective Workplace Agreement came into effect on 1 July 2007. The agreement covers general terms and conditions of employment and provides the fl exibility to deal with Table 6: Staff statistics as at 30 June 2008 non-standard work hours. The nature of surf lifesaving activities requires signifi cant amounts of weekend work and under the terms of the agreement, our employees are entitled to a full day in lieu of a day worked on a weekend. We have monthly staff meetings where any employment related issues which affect all staff are discussed. STAFF TURNOVER AND RECRUITMENT As the table below indicates, for many years SLSA has had high levels of staff turnover. Reasons for this include: • The nature of surf lifesaving activities requires signifi cant amounts of weekend work, which places additional pressure on employees’ personal lives. • As a not-for-profi t organisation, we compete with other sectors of the economy in a highly competitive market. • Perceived lack of professional development and career paths within the organisation. • We do not have a dedicated human resource department, meaning structures and processes can sometimes be ad hoc. • Offi ce accommodation at ‘Surf House’ is crowded and sometimes impacts on productivity and enjoyment. 2002–03 2003–04 2004–05 2005–06 2006–07 2007–08 Change 06–07 to 07–08 Full time equivalent (FTE) staff 18 23 27 27 29 35 21% % male employees 39% 48% 52% 43% 58% 60% 2% % female employees 61% 52% 48% 57% 42% 40% -2% Resignations or other staff turnover 44% 22% 48% 30% 44% 41% -3% SECTION 02—OVERVIEW OF OPERATIONS AND ACTIVITIES 55
