Make the most of your pre-tax earnings
Currently every Calvary full and part time employee can reduce their taxable income by taking up salary packaging.
As a Not-For-Profit organisation, the Australian Tax Office allows Calvary employees to pay for certain living expenses with pre-tax dollars.
You could salary package your mortgage, rent, personal loans, or general expenses such as bills and groceries. This reduces the overall amount of tax payable on your gross salary and increases the amount of disposable income you have to spend each pay.
In addition, you can claim meal and entertainment, venue hire, novated leases and more.
Support when you need it
Calvary provides a minimum of three free and confidential Employee Wellness Program sessions to all employees and their immediate family members. This service is provided by a network of highly professional, friendly and caring psychologists and social workers.
This service can be used to address issues of a work or personal nature that may be impacting on your health and wellbeing, including:
- Stress
- Depression
- Mental illness
- Grief and trauma
- Coping with change

We are proud to be recognised as a leader in gender equality
A prestigious citation awarded by the Workplace Gender and Equality Agency (WGEA) recognises Calvary as a leader in gender equality.
WGEA Director Helen Conway said “The WGEA Employer of Choice for Gender Equality citation recognises organisations that have demonstrated an active commitment to gender equality in their workplace with a focus on removing the structural and cultural barriers that prevent the full participation of women at work.”
Mark Doran, Calvary’s National Chief Executive Officer is “very proud of our focus on creating a working environment that encourages our diverse workforce to maximise their personal potential in a wide range of roles on offer at Calvary. The citation recognises that gender equality is increasingly critical to an organisation’s success and is viewed as a baseline feature of well-managed and leading organisations”.
“We work hard to provide flexible working arrangements, which I believe are essential in the health care industry due to family commitments. This is critical for contemporary workplaces”.
We are committed to:
- Providing a just culture
- A workplace free of bullying, harassment and favourtism
- Continuously improving and leading Workplace Gender Equality in the industry
- Respecting our workforce is made up of staff of all ages, gender, faith, ethnic background and its those differences that build a rich culture in keeping with the Spirit of Calvary.
