EOWA

The University of Sydney works hard to provide an environment which is supportive and committed to the advancement of women at the University and within the wider education field.

Thanks to our work-place friendly benefits and conditions for women, the University of Sydney was recognised as an Employer of Choice for Women for the fourth year in a row.

Some of the initiatives that make us an Employer of Choice for Women include:

• Flexible working practices
• Women in Leadership Program
• Sydney University Network for Women (SUN)
• Parents Support Group
• Carer’s leave
• Paid parental leave
• Child Care and School Holiday programs

Because the University has analysed its workforce, identified the issues facing women employees and taken measures to address these issues it has been waived of the EOWA requirement to report every year.
