453.0. "JOB SHARING IN NH" by GNEVAX::BURGESS () Mon Aug 24 1987 16:46

    THIS IS MY FIRST TIME USING NOTES, MY QUESTION TO THE POPULATION
    IS THE FOLLOWING:
    
    IS THERE ANY WORKING MOTHERS THAT WOULD BE INTERESTED IN THE PROSPECT
    OF JOB SHARING?
    
    I HAVE 3 YOUNG CHILDREN AND I WOULD LIKE TO SPEND MORE TIME WITH
    THEM, HOWEVER, FINANCIALLY I NEED TO WORK AT LEAST PART TIME.  I
    LIVE IN SOUTHERN NH AND I WOULD LIKE TO SEE IF THERE IS ANYONE OUT
    THERE WHO IS INTERESTED IN JOB SHARING (OR THINKS THEIR MANAGER
    WOULD APPROVE SUCH A THING).  MY POSITION IS S/W AND MKTG RELATED,
    WAGE CLASS 4, LEVEL 5.  THERE IS AN ARTICLE IN WORKING MOTHER (AUGUST
    1987) THAT DISCUSSES WHAT DIGITAL DOES FOR THE WORKING MOTHER -
    IT MENTIONS DIGITAL SUPPORTS FLEX TIME AND JOB SHARING AND IS GETTING
    INVOLVED WITH A DAYCARE REFERRAL PROGRAM.  I CALLED CORP. PERSONNEL
    TO SEE WHAT THE PROGRAM FOR JOB SHARING WAS AND THEY DIDN'T KNOW,
    THEY REFERRED ME TO PUBLIC RELATIONS AND THE PERSON I SPOKE WITH
    SAID THAT FLEX TIME AND JOB SHARING WERE DONE ON A MANAGER/EMPLOYEE
    LEVEL.  IN OTHER WORDS, IT'S SOMETHING THAT YOU HAVE TO INITIATE,
    AND THEN GET APPROVAL FROM YOUR MANAGER.   
    
    IF YOUR INTERESTED IN SUCH A PROSPECT OR AT LEAST IN DISCUSSING IT,
    WRITE BACK TO ME.

    Hiya!
    
    I don't have any of the information you seek (though this is probably
    the place to look for it).
    
    However, I just thought I'd suggest that you please use a combination
    of lowercase and capital letters, just like in regular typing.
    
    Now I'll shut up, and let people who know what they're talking about
    speak.
    
    Welcome, welcome, welcome!

    there.

453.4Share your experiencesCADSYS::RICHARDSONTue Aug 25 1987 13:314
    Hi, Eileen!  Are you still working part-time yourself?  Maybe you
    could share some of your experiences here (like, how you talked
    management into it, what the problems were, etc.) for others who
    are considering this option.
453.5Admin Sec / Half time / Chelmsford, Mass.SUPER::HENDRICKSNot another learning experience!Wed Sep 09 1987 12:4113
    I just learned that someone is Chelmsford is looking for a part time
    administrative secretary.  It's a good job for someone who has children
    in full day daycare because it requires 2 full days one week followed by
    3 full days the next week.  The woman presently in the job works
    that schedule, and the manager (a woman) has given her permission
    to find someone else to work a "mirror" schedule and job-share.
                
    For more information, call Debbie Sund at DTN 269-2311.  Wednesdays
    and Thursdays are best.
    
    I believe they are only able to interview internal candidates.
