My hours are pretty flexible I usually work from 8:00 to 4:00 every day (1 hour break in between). I am also doing post-graduate study as well, and the ABS have approved study leave.
Midlevel, Sydney
Very flexible. Any extra hours worked each day are returned back as "flex time" which can be used later on (such as leaving earlier, taking a day off). Workplace happy for employees to work from home when needed.

I can choose my hours and work when I want to
Midlevel, Melbourne
You need to do 7hrs and 25mins of work per day. Any variance, whether positive or negative. carries over to the next day. If you collect 7hrs and 25mins in overtime, you can get a day off.

Very flexible - our start/finish times are based on what suits us best and can change day to day. We can also very the amount of hours we work each week provided that it eventually averages out to the standard working week. Currently we're able to work from home up to 3 days per week

The ABS is very flexible when it comes to hours. We use Flextime which allows you to accumulate hours and take those hours off when desired. Also being able to take time off to go to appointments and being able to make that time up the next day/night is very valuable.

Very flexible, can work from home too
Midlevel, Perth
My org uses flexitime, so I'm able to have flexible hours so long as I average 7:25 hours per day. There are some set meetings, however, that mean I generally need to work between 9am and 3pm at least. My org also allows WFH, I'm currently averaging 1 day per week WFH, but with capacity to move to 2 days once my probation ends.

7hr 25min standard day. Work in teams so need to be working some time within standard hours but can start early or work late; do a block then log on again later etc. E.g. lots of the parents will start like 9, work till 3, go pick up kids head home do family time/dinner then log back on from home and do a couple more hours work in the evening.
Graduate, Hobart
Very flexible, I can work less or more so long as I keep track and am reasonable. Start and finish times are flexible and not set.
Graduate, Perth
Hours are flexible, 7.25 hours a day, however you can work more or less on one day and make up for it on another.
Midlevel, Melbourne
Very flexible with start and finish times and break timing. Easy to do more than the set hours due to busy workload.
Graduate, Canberra
Company is extremely flexible and almost anything is up for negotiation or can be accommodated once you are employed.
Graduate, Adelaide
Flexible working arrangements include a requirement to come into the office 4 times per fortnight whilst also having capabilities to work from home.
Graduate, Adelaide
Very flexible, you can either build up 40+ or 10- hours of flex, so you can use flex to take time off other shifts as you need, within reason.
Graduate, Melbourne
7 hours and 25 minutes expected a day, over-time is recorded as 'flex-time' which can be taken as days off/ leaving early/ arriving late.
