Policy Purpose

To give an overview of how we effectively work in a hybrid set up that allows us to raise the bar, succeed together and be drivers.

Eligibility

This applies to anyone in a role where hybrid working is possible. Some teams (for example, Workplace Experience, User Support) may have different in-office requirements, this will be agreed within their team.

Definitions

• Hybrid working: a mix of working in the office and remotely.
• Remote working: working from somewhere that isn’t the office, where you can still get your work done effectively.

Individual roles will require specific time commitments. This will be discussed with your talent partner.

Policy details

• We work a minimum of 3 days a week in the office.
• If you work part time, your office days will be based on your working pattern/hours. Please discuss this with your manager.
• Teams agree how they will structure their in office days to be most effective, build in-person connections and succeed together.
• Managers are accountable for ensuring team alignment and fairness.
• We all take accountability for making in-office time purposeful and are thoughtful about how we collaborate and default to working in the office when team presence is needed.
• Practice visits and the Summer Conference are the equivalent of office days.
• On short working weeks where there is a bank holiday or you are taking holiday, please work from the office with your team for at least 50% of your working days that week.

To fix healthcare communication we need to work effectively together and move with urgency. To help with meeting scheduling, avoiding blockers and making collaboration easier we ask everyone to be working and available during our Core Hours: 10am–4pm.

Meetings may need to fall outside these hours. Please be mark in your Google Calendar when you’re not available for meetings, so it’s easier when colleagues are trying to arrange a meeting.
