Workload quick start guide

Supporting staff to manage workload effectively is key to fostering a culture of wellbeing, balance and productivity. 

The workload quick start guide, created in collaboration with People and Organisational Development (POD), highlights programmes and resources designed to support better workload management. These include the Workload Management Toolkit, which offers practical tools for both individuals and managers, and the Managing Workload Conversations course — a one-day, in-person session available to managers, designed to build confidence in navigating open and constructive workload discussions.

A workload session recording is available to aid staff in managing workload effectively.

Print and display the workload quick start guide poster in common areas or during events, incorporate it into training sessions or team meetings to direct staff to online resources.
