What are your favourite North Herts Council staff benefits and why?

The flexibility the role gives me – working from home, which allows me to take time out to attend the gym at lunchtimes and allows me to take time out to drop-off my son to school and pick him up in the evening. The Christmas shutdown is always a very nice time too!
