CARE WORKER - PART TIME

Job Description

All our staff members are expected to undertake the same level of training, regardless of the amount of hours they intend to work. All staff are also offered a guaranteed hours contract following a successful probation period.

 

Being a driver with access to your own vehicle is not essential but reliance on public transport can sometimes prove a challenge. Please consider how you will access the community if you are not a driver, and be prepared to demonstrate this in-depth at interview.

 

You must be flexible between the hours of 07:00 – 23:00 on 5 days out of 7, on a rota basis that meets the needs of the people we support. You do not need to commit to a particular number of hours though it is often beneficial to share what hours you are looking for. You will discuss the expectations of the role during interview which will be documented, and further formalised in your employment contract if you are successful in your application.

 

You will still be expected to Register with Social Care Wales after your probation period. We will discuss how this should be managed as you progress through your career, particularly if your hours remain minimal. To find out more about Registration follow the link to our dedicated page. You will also be expected to attend all training in order to maintain compliance with regulations as well as your personal Registration. You must consider how you will overcome any barriers in accessing training when committing to working part-time. We will discuss how we can support you to access any training you are required to attend.
