Hybrid Working and Workspace Assessments

The hybrid working policy allows staff members to work at home, the office, or/and hub for all or part of their working week.  ETBI like to ensure that as many of our staff can continue to benefit from an enhanced work-life balance by giving them the choice to return to the office, continue working remotely or have the flexibility to do a  mixture of both. ETBI also has trained staff members to carry out a workspace assessment ensuring the staff home office is ergonomically safe and meets the recommended standards.

Pensions

Staff at ETBI are eligible to join the ETBI pension plan following six months of satisfactory employment.

If staff are seconded from the education sector (public service), the rules of the superannuation scheme applicable to their substantive grade will apply.
