Benefits of working at Gateway Health
Gateway Health is always looking for people who share our values and want to help deliver better health outcomes in the Ovens and Murray region.
Here are a few more reasons why you should consider a career with us.
Gateway Health employees are eligible for salary packaging, provided through our partnership with Eziway.
Salary Packaging lets you maximise your income by minimising the tax you pay, leaving you with more money in your pocket for the things you love.
It works by allowing you to pay for certain items directly out of your pre-tax salary, including:
everyday living expenses including mortgage, rent or credit card payments
meal and entertainment expenses
holiday accommodation and venue hire
the finance and running costs of your car through Novated Leasing
other work-related expenses.
Annual Leave – Most full-time positions attract a four to five week annual leave entitlement. This is calculated pro-rata for part-time employees.
Purchased Annual Leave – By reducing your pay you can receive up to four weeks of additional annual leave (available for certain positions).
Professional Development – Eligible employees can apply for leave to attend conferences, seminars and workshops, undertake research or higher education.
Accrued Days Off (ADO) – Most full-time employees can accrue a monthly day off.
Public Holiday Substitution – As lots of religious and cultural holidays observed in Australia aren’t recognised public holidays this allows staff who wish to celebrate other cultural and/or religious traditions by substituting a declared public holiday to take time off work to celebrate these.
We offer employees a great work/life balance with flexible working conditions so you can find what works for you.
We have full-time, part-time, casual, or even night shift positions, and flexible rostering is often available.
Learning is an ongoing journey, and Gateway Health promotes continued learning and development for all employees.
We support staff to complete professional development activities such as online courses, in-person short courses, conferences, and further education/study.
Regular clinical supervision is also provided for all staff who work directly with clients as part of their role.
Fitness Passport – A discounted workplace health and fitness program is available to you and your family. This means for a fraction of the price of a regular gym membership, members enjoy access to a wide range of gyms, pools and fitness centres as often as they like.
Gateway Health is a smoke-free workplace.
Employee Assistance Program – AccessEAP is a confidential coaching and support service available to our employees as well as their families (parent, spouse/partner or children). Qualified professionals provide this service free of charge.
Rewards and recognition.
Free on-site car parking is available at all of our locations.
When you commence working with Gateway Health, we will provide you with a comprehensive induction into our community health service.
This includes:
A full-day organisational induction session, commencing with a welcome from our Chief Executive Officer followed by a series of guest speakers to introduce you to our operations and programs offered, as well as a fully catered lunch with them.
A ‘site and program induction’ is arranged by your manager and includes introducing you to employees, procedures you need to know, safety standards, and other information relevant to your program and role to set you up for success.
Our communications with you won’t end there. Regular electronic newsletters and monthly all-staff meetings will keep you up to date with what is happening across Gateway Health.
Workplace standards
Gateway Health’s entire workforce is compliant with the Victorian Chief Health Officer’s Mandatory Vaccination Directions.
The Workplace Gender Equality Amendment (Closing the Gender Pay Gap) Act 2023 requires the Workplace Gender Equality Agency (WGEA) to publish private sector employer gender pay gaps from early 2024, and Commonwealth public sector gender pay gaps from late 2024/early 2025.
International experience has shown that increasing the visibility of employer gender pay gaps is an effective catalyst for change on workplace gender equality. This includes progress on narrowing the gender pay gap and its drivers.
The gender pay gap is a universally recognised metric of workplace gender equality. However, it is a broad and highly contextual measure, and is one of several that can be drawn on to signal an employer’s commitment to achieving gender equality in the workplace.
Gender Pay Gap reporting legislation requires employers with 100 or more employees to publish statutory calculations every year showing how large the pay gap is between their male and female employees. Gender pay gap calculations are based on figures drawn from a specific date each year, this is called the ‘snapshot date’. This report draws on pay data as at the snapshot date of 30th March 2024
For this reason, Gateway Health has analysed and composed an Employer Statement to share with the details and context of our gender pay gap, including the actions we are undertaking to address them.
