requirements of my job without regularly working excessive hours’ for the first time which resulted in a high number of staff strongly agreeing with the statement. It was agreed that excessive workloads would form part of the Provost’s Board action plan which I led and took forward. A cross-College Workload Concerns Working Group was set up and meetings took place with the Joint Trade Unions over the last few years. Since the coronavirus pandemic, further Wellbeing Pulse Surveys took place (termly) and indicated that workload concerns continued to be an issue.   </p> <p>We listened to staff members’ concerns and through the set-up of the Working Group, I am pleased to confirm that the following was agreed at the Provost’s Board: The College’s first Workload Principles, Workload Management approach and Workload Allocation Model. Further information on these areas can be found below.  </p> <p>These are our first steps and I know that workload will continue to need ongoing attention and review. <a href="/about/leadership-and-strategy/provost/working-together-task-group/">The Working Together Task Group’s</a> action plan further supports our work here.

These should be balanced with the requirements of the role and the overall department aims when reviewing and setting individual objectives.</li> <li>Line managers will ensure that any major changes in workload distribution, including changes resulting from restructure, are discussed in advance with the staff affected and where appropriate ensure they are communicated throughout the Department.</li> <li>Cover for family leave, long-term sickness absence or vacant positions will be determined in relation to the capacity within the department to cover the work in question in accordance with the above principles.</li> <li>Work allocation should allow staff to take appropriate breaks.</li> <li>New College-wide processes and procedures, and organisational change managed through the Change Management Policy and Procedure, will be assessed alongside the potential impact on workload for all staff involved prior to implementation.</li> </ol> </div> </section><section id='tabpanel_967264' role='tabpanel' aria-labelledby='tab_967264' class='tabs-panel js-tabs-panel' tabindex='0'> <div class='accordion-trigger js-accordion-trigger' aria-controls='tabpanel_967264' tabindex='0'> Local Workload Management <svg role='img' aria-hidden='true' focusable='false' class='icon icon--m'><use xlink:href='/assets/website/images/svg/icons.svg#chevron-down'></use></svg> </div> <div class='content' aria-hidden='false'> <p>The following guidelines will need to be considered by departments and line managers at a local level.  These reflect current good practice and the College’s responsibilities as an employer and are in accordance with Health and Safety legislation.</p> <ul> <li>Clear communication will take place about the duties and requirements of a role when recruiting and promoting staff.</li> <li>Heads of Department and/or line managers will ensure that they are accessible to any member of staff who wishes to discuss concerns about their role and workload.</li> <li>If a member of staff feels 'overloaded' or considers the quantity or content of their workload to be unreasonable, they should raise their concerns with their line manager (or nominee). The Head of Department or line manager must discuss this with the individual to better understand the situation and identify potential solutions where appropriate. If this does not address the concern, they should contact the Employee Relations team, who will discuss the opportunity to have a facilitated conversation.</li> <li>Prolonged periods of work without an appropriate break are not recommended.  As such, where staff are required to work to a specific timetable, the development of timetables should take time for a break into account.</li> <li>It is acknowledged that staff have differing working patterns and domestic commitments and therefore meetings should ideally be arranged within the parameters of the College’s core working hours (09.00 to 17.00) for the attendees of the meeting concerned.</li> <li>Departments should encourage members of staff to book and take regular periods of annual leave throughout the leave year.</li> <li>Heads of Department and line managers, with the assistance of HR, will monitor sickness absence to identify any patterns of sickness which may indicate work-related illness.
