But what are the practical advantages? Let's start with holiday Naturally, there's plenty of paid holiday. But we also offer the opportunity to take a career break of up to 1 year, as long as you've worked for us for at least a year. You can buy or sell up to 1 week's holiday time. And we'll give prospective parents both paternity and maternity leave - including those adopting. There's personal leave of up to 5 days to cover unforeseen circumstances and domestic emergencies if you have 1 year's service. What's more, all permanent staff get one 'floating day' on top of their annual holiday to be used around Christmas. What about hours? Well, we're completely committed to giving all our employees a good balance between work and personal life, so depending on the area and role you work in we may be able to offer part time contracts, job sharing and even four-day weeks and nine-day fortnights. Actual daily hours can be flexible too, with start and finish times not restricted to the normal 9 to 5. These are informal arrangements managed locally and available on a permanent or ad hoc basis. Discounts Generous discount is given on our own merchandise, which many people find highly convenient - especially at Christmas and birthdays. All Debenhams employees can also take advantage of a range of specially negotiated discounts with external companies, including leisure centres, restaurants, theatres and insurance businesses. Working in an office or store in central London? Then you are eligible for a free zone 1-6 travel card. And if you live outside zone 6, then you can get an interest free season ticket loan to help fund the difference. Anyone who is required to relocate either through promotion or at the request of the company will be compensated with a relocation package that may cover legal, conveyancing and removal fees. Thinking of joining us as a Manager or Senior Executive? Then you'll qualify for our Flexible Reward scheme, which will allow you to choose from a menu of benefits that are constantly being improved and updated. Many options are also open to partners and dependants, for example, private medical insurance and tax reporting. Company cars are also available through this scheme and can be traded up and down with an extensive choice of cars available. We'd like you to share in the success of our company as much as possible.... which is why we offer a number of share schemes: Sharesave enables our employees to buy our shares at a discount of 20% by means of a monthly savings account for 3 or 5 years. And with our Share Option plans, grants are made to people working as Managers or above over a 3 year period based on their salary and grade at the time of the award. Health, pension and insurance cover Everyone here gets a generous discount on BUPA Private Medical insurance and 24 hour personal accident cover starts from day one. You also have the opportunity to join our pension scheme that includes life insurance cover, incapacity/ill-health protection and employer contributions as well as providing you with a level of guaranteed level of pension whilst you are a member of the scheme. But our benefits don't stop there. Outstanding people or teams can be nominated for our employee recognition scheme, Celebrating Success, which can award them instant, monthly and annual prizes. Cash rewards are also available through Introducing Talent, a staff referral scheme that repays our people when they successfully recommend their friends and family for positions with us. Good performance by individuals is recognised via annual appraisals and on an on-going basis. And you can share in our company's success with bonus schemes that have been designed to support our Company values and the way in which we work, through incentivising and motivating you to achieve outstanding results at both a team and company level. And what about YOU? Do voluntary work? Part of the Territorial Army? Got community commitments? Then we could help you to do justice to them. And if you're involved with any charity, we're happy to sponsor events and match contributions. Our Occupational Health Service is also there to make sure you stay fit and healthy, providing eye tests and other health services. We also provide access to a Retail Trust helpline which provides independent and confidential assistance on a wide range of issues. As you can see, the benefits are extensive.
