Health and Wellbeing programmes:

myWELLBEING is EY’s wellbeing program, and our commitment to caring for our greatest assets: our people. We recognise that when our people feel well, they are able to bring the best version of themselves into the workplace, creating a positive work environment for everybody. We understand that there are many factors that contribute to our overall wellbeing, including our mental, physical and financial health, as well as our family and community contributions. Our wellbeing incentive provides financial support for you to invest in your wellbeing and help you achieve your wellbeing goals.

EY Ripples:

Through EY Ripples, you will have the opportunity to participate in skilled volunteering. You could find yourself working alongside colleagues to help social impact entrepreneurs grow and scale their businesses or on projects that accelerate environment sustainability. Or you might prefer to volunteer as a mentor for college students helping them with the skills and mindset they need for the future of work. You could even find yourself working with EY colleagues around the world as part of a virtual support network on a project with an impact entrepreneur.

Flexibility:

We aim to create a work environment around the world that enables flexible working, and supports the health and wellbeing of all our people. The office serves as one working location, not as the only one. By providing our people with current technology and encouraging more flexible working, we’re enabling them to work at the office, in transit, at home or from client sites. In the office, our physical spaces provide more informal working areas and meeting rooms so you can successfully collaborate and network.

FLEXIleave:

You’ll have the opportunity to purchase up to six weeks extra leave. This provides you with more time for study, family or other personal pursuits.

DE&I networks:

Our people are encouraged to join and participate in our network groups to expand your personal networks, exchange information and develop professional skills while connecting with leadership, peers, our communities and clients.

Employee Insurances:

You have access to a fully subsidised Group Workplace scheme providing Group Life & Terminal Illness Insurances, Income Protection and Group Critical Illness (or Trauma) Cover.

Dress for your day:

We’ve introduced Dress for Your Day, a dress code that further binds our unique culture of flexibility, authenticity and creativity. It means our people can now dress in a way that is appropriate for their work each day. Those with no external client meetings can choose smart casual dress, while those meeting with external clients may opt for more formal attire.

Family leave:

We provide 26 weeks of paid parental leave, which can be taken flexibly by either parent during the 24 months after the child(ren)’s birth. There is no required service period to access the leave. This applies to stillborn birth, adoption, and surrogacy and can be taken as block leave or on a part-time basis. All family leave entitlements are inclusive of LGBTQ people, regardless of the gender of the Staff Member or their partner. This is on top of the Government’s paid parental leave provisions. We provide five days of paid leave for early pregnancy loss and fertility treatment. Along with leave for grandparents to take around the time of birth of adoption of a grandchild with further access to unpaid leave for up to 12 months.
