Working virtually

To work from home you will need to have access to the right systems, software, files, forms, templates and resources you need to do your job remotely. 

The level of access you require to complete your job at home depends on your role and the type of applications you use. Please be mindful that not all positions are suitable for work from home, and Line Manager approvals will always be subject to operational requirements.

Working from home

When working from home you will need to have access to the right systems, software, files, forms, templates, other tools and resources you need to do your job remotely. 

Non-frontline staff may be able to continue day to day activities including access to their emails and ability to work on Word, PowerPoint, Excel.  For these scenarios, staff members only require an Office 365 account and access to internet or WIFI at home. 

Your line manager or director will advise if you need to work from home. If you have any concerns, please bring this to your line manager or director’s attention before working from home.
