Our values
At Uniting, our values are at the heart of everything we do.
We’re compassionate and respectful in our words and deeds. We’re bold in the face of injustice, and we use our imagination to explore new possibilities and opportunities.
We dare to dream of a better future for the people we support.
Not-for-profit benefits
At Uniting, we’re for people.
We’re passionate about making sure the people in our team and the people we support, thrive.
Uniting WA team members enjoy:
5 weeks of annual leave

Uniting WA shift workers (as defined by our Employee Collective Agreement) receive 6 weeks annual leave per year.
Salary packaging options
Salary packaging increases your disposable income by reducing the income tax you pay. It works by allocating a portion of your pre-tax income to the payment of certain expenses (such as your mortgage, rent, petrol, groceries or insurances) and entertainment purchases.
Uniting WA team members can access up to $15,900 from your salary for everyday purchases and up to $2,650 for entertainment purchases.
Team members can also access Novated Leasing, on new, used and existing cars. This is a salary packaging arrangement that allows team members to bundle lease payments and car running costs – including petrol, insurance, rego and servicing – into one convenient payment.
Learning and development opportunities
At Uniting WA, we’re committed to the ongoing learning and development of everyone in the team, so you’ll be supported to belong and thrive.
We also provide regular opportunities for learning and development, including an online portal that’s available for all team members.

Up to 12 months unpaid parental leave

6 weeks of paid parental leave (funded by the employer at the team member’s base rate of pay; and to be taken as 6 consecutive weeks leave.)
Employee Assistance Program (EAP) – free counselling service
We understand that work – and life – can be challenging sometimes. That’s why we provide a free counselling service to all our team members and their immediate families through the Employee Assistance Program (EAP).
