Flexible training and working in surgery
Throughout your career in surgery, you may wish to consider training or working less than full time (LTFT). This may be to do research, move abroad or start a family, among other reasons. Depending on your career stage and location, there are a variety of ways in which you can achieve an alternative work-life balance.
The Royal College of Surgeons of England is committed to supporting both men and women to train and work flexibly. Our Women in Surgery Forum regularly address the issues and concerns related to flexible working for both men and women, with the aim to provide better guidance and support for all who are on this career pathway.
