Life-work balance

 

We love our multicultural and diverse workforce, and part of that is recognising the different leave needs of every individual. So on top of the usual options like annual, sick and carers leave, we offer Lifestyle and Cultural leave, and plenty more.  We also know that every family is unique, so here at Bendigo Bank we proudly support all kinds of families with our family leave policies.

 

Leave for you

On top of your usual leave entitlements, we also offer:

Lifestyle and Cultural Leave

Up to 3 paid days leave each calendar year to do what matters to you. Our special events, personal milestones and lifestyles aren’t always aligned, so we created Lifestyle and Cultural leave to be used for anything important or significant to you. This could be for religious or cultural activities, your birthday or even that annual golf tournament with your mates!

First Nations Cultural and Ceremonial Leave

Up to 5 days paid leave each calendar year for eligible Aboriginal or Torres Strait Islander employees to participate in cultural and/or ceremonial practices within their community - that's in addition to the 5 days compassionate leave. For example, this could be to participate in NAIDOC celebrations or attend Sorry Business.

Gender Affirmation Support Leave  

Up to 6 weeks' paid leave to support trans people through their affirmation process, including social, medical and legal affirmation. We know that not everyone transitioning will take all, or any of these steps or in any particular order, whatever you choose to do - we've got your back. 

 

Family Leave

Every family is unique and here at Bendigo Bank we proudly support all kinds of families with our family leave policies.
