Haringey Staff Benefits Scheme
Haringey Council offers a wide range of benefits which are available to all staff employed on a Haringey Contract. The benefits available may be attractive to staff at different time of their life, from parents to those planning for retirement, but all of them are designed to help you achieve a work / life balance, to give you advice and guidance and to stay healthy.
Full details of all benefits are given to new staff when they join the Council.
