After a 6 month trial, HumanX have successfully rolled out a 9-day working fortnight at FULL pay.

HumanX are leading outsourced HR specialists, consulting and partnering with major companies across Australia. The scope of their work varies greatly, from developing HR policies and company culture as good as their own to supporting and strategising on major restructures or migrations.

The work for the HumanX team is different every day. Founders Hich Nasr, Tahnee McWhirter and Kirbie McWhirter recognise that the role of a HR can be emotionally demanding as well as constantly shifting gear. This was a key motivator for developing their own, bespoke guidelines and expectations around how their team could take breaks and care for their mental health. HumanX are major advocates for building a positive workplace experience. They believe the best way to do this always involves a unique approach. HR cannot be one-size-fits-all.

HumanX are another Australian success case for shortening working hours, as they approve a 9 day working fortnight for all full time employees. They are amongst the first private companies to offer this way of working. It is incredibly unique for SME organisations to offer such flexibility and rewards, especially at full pay.

One of the founders of HumanX HR, said of their policy "Our mental health policy exists to educate our team about the symptoms and signs of declining mental health in themselves and their colleagues"

"[The package] includes paid time off, alteration to workloads, counselling and support services across diverse suppliers from LGBTQI+-specific to pastoral care.
