Our shift to hybrid working is an extension of our long-standing commitment to flexible working. We are a people business. We build relationships and learn from each other. Hybrid working enables us to balance the needs of our clients, colleagues and teams, taking advantage of the benefits of coming together in person and providing our people with the flexibility they need. There are plenty of opportunities for our employees to connect with their colleagues including through our Employee Network Groups such as Pride at Macquarie, Families and Carers, Asia Women's Network, Wellness and Inclusion, and Women in Tech. Other employee-led networking and community opportunities include sporting groups and networking events. Each of our business groups has different needs so expectations for hybrid working are set on a group and team basis. Formal flexible working arrangements are also available.
