South Australia Police

In reply to the Hon. T.J. STEPHENS (5 July 2016).

The Hon. P. MALINAUSKAS (Minister for Police, Minister for Correctional Services, Minister for Emergency Services, Minister for Road Safety): I am advised:

South Australia Police (SAPOL) supports employees by providing flexible working arrangements, including paid maternity leave, paternity leave, part-time employment, career breaks and variations of local shift patterns.

This approach is underpinned by comprehensive policies and processes that balances the individual employee’s needs against organisational obligations regarding service delivery and demand management.

SAPOL has taken deliberate steps to apply these policies in as flexible a way as possible. SAPOL has recently amended the delegation to approve part-time and other flexible working arrangements so that they are more accessible to those seeking to access them.

Flexible working arrangements, in particular part-time, are the subject of a significant review process to identify enhancements that can be made so the needs of the employer and employee can continue to be addressed.
