Staff Perks
-
Dress for your day
‘Dress for your day’ allows employees to choose the appropriate attire for each workday based on their tasks for that day. Our work is not one-size-fits-all, and we do not have to look that way either. The bottom-line is we want employees to be comfortable at work. If you are in the field you are provided a uniform to wear that makes you identifiable as a Capricorn representative when visiting Member premises.
-
Paid parental leave
Capricorn have an employer funded paid parental leave scheme providing 12 weeks of leave to the primary caregiver, and two weeks paid leave to the secondary care giver. This is in addition to the government paid parental leave scheme.

Flexible working
Capricorn recognises that providing employees with flexibility in how they work is beneficial. Capricorn employees can request to work from home or work flexible hours to support their work/life balance.
