BACKGROUND Healthy Cities and Counties Programme The Healthy Cities and Counties Programme is a Department of Health funded initiative delivered through local government. Its focus is on promoting lifelong wellbeing, preventing illness, creating supportive environments for health, and reducing health inequities. The programme emphasises the important role local authorities play in improving community wellbeing outcomes. The programme supports a whole-of-local-government approach. It demonstrates how co-ordinated action across the wider determinants of health – such as housing, environment, transport, and community services – can improve wellbeing and contribute to broader development and policy objectives. Aligning health and wellbeing activity with other local government initiatives that share similar goals strengthens collaboration and ensures a more coherent approach to community wellbeing.

Blended Working Arrangements HIQA has introduced blended working to offer more flexible working arrangements to all employees. We aim to strike a balance between being flexible, efficient and resilient by facilitating blended working where practical, while enabling onsite interaction, collaboration and support as required. All roles in HIQA have been assessed under the criteria of business needs and role suitability for blended working. This determined the proportion of time that employees will spend working in HIQA offices and working from home, depending on their role. Depending on the role, there may be a requirement to attend the office for more than the allocated number of days for training and onboarding purposes at the start of your employment and during the probation period. A review of the blended working model confirmed that this model is working well in HIQA. Therefore, HIQA is now moving from Interim Blended Working to a long term Blended Working Model. Existing policy and documentation will be revised and updated once the framework for the Work Life Balance and Miscellaneous Provisions Act is published. The model is in line with the Civil Service Framework for Blended Working in Ireland. Further guidance on HIQA’s Blended Working Policy, which includes eligibility criteria, will be issued to successful candidates. This is an opt in policy and details on how to apply will be issued before commencement.
