Work Location Category : Hybrid Flexible

PSEG operates under a Flexible Work Model where flexible work is offered when job requirements allow. In support of this model, roles have been categorized into one of four work location categories :

On-site roles have specific onsite requirements and are typically onsite daily.

Hybrid fixed roles are roles that are a blend of onsite work / in-person interactions with some ability to work remotely and require employees to live within a commutable distance and be onsite fixed days each week.

Hybrid flexible roles are those that can be performed remotely but require some level of onsite work / in-person interactions on a regular basis, require employees to live within a commutable distance, and, since business needs vary by position and may change over time, managers will set expectations and flexibility regarding where and when work is performed.

Fully remote roles can be performed remotely, require employees to live in approved states, and will have purpose-driven in-person interactions on occasion.
