Family and Flexibility

The University of South Australia (UniSA) provides a family friendly work environment where the breadth of staff members’ lives is acknowledged and their family responsibilities are supported to enable them to participate fully in the University.

Staff who are breastfeeding mothers are entitled to reasonable breaks in paid time for lactation purposes. Multi-access suites can be found on Level 3 at 101 Currie St (CWE-AU3-07), and adjacent to the library on each campus. These suites provide a dignified, private and appropriate space that supports the needs of breastfeeding mothers.

Our Parental leave arrangements provide generous support for leave related to parenting, including maternity, adoption, pre-natal, post-natal, partner and child rearing leave.

For breastfeeding support and advice from a qualified counsellor contact www.breastfeeding.asn.au or 1800 686 2 268 (1800 mum 2 mum).
