Abstract: Results of a survey undertaken in Dunedin (a university city of approximately 96,000 people in the South Island of New Zealand) provide two interesting insights regarding the implementation of job sharing in the surveyed organisations: first, that the majority of job-share positions are employer-initiated; and second, that there is a preponderance of newly established job-share positions. These findings depart from the established international pattern. Possible explanations are considered.
