Blended Working Arrangements HIQA has introduced blended working to offer more flexible working arrangements to all employees. We aim to strike a balance between being flexible, efficient and resilient by facilitating blended working where practical, while enabling onsite interaction, collaboration and support as required. All roles in HIQA have been assessed under the criteria of business needs and role suitability for blended working. This determines the proportion of time that employees will spend working in HIQA offices and working from home, depending on their role. Depending on the role, there may be a requirement to attend the office for more than the allocated number of days for training and onboarding purposes at the start of your employment and during the probation period. A review of our blended working model confirmed that this model is working well in HIQA; therefore, we are now moving from Interim Blended Working to a long-term Blended Working Model. Our existing policy and documentation will be revised and updated once the framework for the Work-Life Balance and Miscellaneous Provisions Act is published. Our model is in line with the Civil Service Framework for Blended Working in Ireland. Further guidance on HIQA’s Blended Working Policy, which includes eligibility criteria, will be issued to successful candidates. This is an opt-in policy and details on how you can apply will be issued to you before you start.
