Currently, 29 members of staff in my Department are work-sharing. This represents 14% of my Department's total staff. In considering requests to participate in the Civil Service work-sharing scheme, my Department considers its operating requirements and endeavours to tailor workloads to allow for flexible attendance patterns that accommodate the business needs of my Department and the personal responsibilities or choices of those who wish to participate in it.
