Administratative duties

As a senior registrar we expect you to perform non clinical administrative duties. This may include rostering, education and research.

In order for you to do this, you will receive protected administration time. You will be allocated either a half day per week or a whole day per fortnight of administration time. This is in addition to the One week in four ADO's you will have as part of your employment contract for working at Westmead. Most SR's have preferred to take their admin time as one day per fortnight, but the choice is left up to the individual.

We believe that you are getting prepared for a career as a specialist, and allocate time for such activities.  This time will allow you to prepare for educational activities, foster research and so on. It is designed to be used flexibly. You don't necessarily have to do all the tasks during this time. Rather, it provides a degree of payback for the time you will spend in non clinical tasks for the department.
