Working Carers

The University is committed to supporting the increasing numbers of working careers amongst our staff as part of our strategic objectives to make the University a more inclusive place.

Staff members with caring responsibilities are encouraged to discuss requests for flexibility with their line manager, or with their Local University HR team.

Other sources of University support include:

• The University has a number of policies that support working carers. HR policies can be accessed via the HR intranet pages under their Policies and Guidance section (accessible via University log in).
• The University’s Bright Beginnings Childcare Centreoffers high quality childcare to students and staff members at the University.
• Occupational Health
• Staff Counselling and Psychological Support Service
• Mental Health and Wellbeing support
