Working Hours at Santos

Santos is very flexible and understanding with work hours. my only note is greater allowance should be made for toil hours (i.e. the requirements to earn them and the amount earned should better reflect the time invested in out of hours operations support).

My work hours are not flexible in any way as i am currently site based so my work hours are directly arranged with my back to back rather than just by myself

Flex friday is a bonus, but you need to work the required number of hours to participate. you can expect to start early and finish late.

Outside of illness and injury hours are poorly managed in my role. one would think the on call and out of hours aspect would provide leniency with working regular office hours. what happens in reality is that during on call periods hours are regularly in excess of 10-12 hours in a day, and office hours sometimes approach this too. there is no adequate remuneration or dispensation for this lost time.

The company is fairly flexible with the start and stop work hours. as long as you get the work done the team leaders do not seem to mind.

Hour flexibility exists in the office, not so much in the field

Better now we have flex friday

Standard hours across the industry

Very happy with the flex hours - if i take a extended lunch break (1 hr) i can just stay overtime afterwards (30 mins). i don't participate in the flex fridays but i would if there was a bit more flexibility surrounding them (e.g. if we could take them on a different day, or if we could take the alternate fridays instead).

At times you are required to out of working hours particularly when you are dealing with operations. graduates who are required to be in the field get an extra loading for being out of the office and also get time off when they are back. graduates that work in operations do not get time off or toil, despite being on call and continuously getting phone calls through the night and on the weekends. some team leaders are more flexible than others but my first team leader required to show up to work everyday despite being awake through the night. fatigue is a major risk in the field so why is it not taken as seriously in the office? i have given a rating of 6 as we now get flex friday's but then again if you are on operations you still have to work.

Flexibility is great. implementation of a 9-day fortnight was well received.

I work a lot of overtime as i support operations 24 hours. my boss is really good at making sure i get breaks - however, the redundancies have reduced our manpower significantly leaving a lot of work split between less people. my overtime is not rewarded or recognised by anyone other than my leader.

Currently on a two week on/off field roster which is very good. flexibility in old office based role was also good as my leader was open to shifting hours around to accommodate appointments etc. often spent extra hours when working in office however due to workload.

Flexible on work timing and flex friday's is great.

Work hours are fair and manageable. flex friday, flex start/finish time and wfh days really enhance work-life balance and are appreciated. this is one of the main reasons for staying with santos so far.

I work 7:30 - 4:15 each day, usually with a 30 minute lunch. we also get every second friday off. i also have a field rotation where i work for 7 days, 11 hours a day; followed by 5 consecutive days off

37.5 hours per week on a 9-day fortnight.

They are flexible when needed.

I take part in flex-fridays; work a 9-day condensed fortnight (i.e., 75 hours in 9 days). ability to opt-out for fortnights when it does not suit my schedule is a benefit as it helps maintain work-life balance. i rarely work from home, however, am aware of flexibility regarding this. for example, some employees have designated "work from home days", encouraging workplace satisfaction. if i were to work from home, i believe i'd be able to on an ad hoc basis. regarding hours, it is expected employees complete standard office hours unless in specific circumstances (i.e., 37.5/week, 75/fortnight).

The company is very flexible when it comes to hours, start and finish time does not matter within reason. as long as the job is getting done and the required hours are being met than it's fine. i personally don't usually work any overtime as the company doesn't pay it but i see others doing unpaid overtime here and there which isn't great.
