New Network - Part-time staff network

Aurélia Robert and Claire Richards have launched a new network aimed at part-time staff or those considering working part-time, who would like to share experiences, discuss issues which affect them, or ask questions in an informal, friendly, and supportive environment.

The network offers a safe space for honest and open conversation, support and sharing experiences (Chatham House rules apply) and invites relevant colleagues to talk about part-time working arrangements (eg, job shares, flexible working, etc).

There will be monthly virtual lunchtime meetings and a termly in-person get together, with the first meeting taking place on:

Wednesday 3 May, 13:00–14:00 hrs.

Please get in touch if you would like to join the network ptsnetwork@aston.ac.uk
