Any employee that has over 26 weeks service can make a formal flexible working request in law, and that can be for any reason. A flexible working request can be a request to change their hours, the times they’re required to work, or the place of work.
Rebecca Mahon, Employment Team
In this webinar, the employment team talked about the differences between flexible working in the legal sense, and working flexibly, which is something a little bit different. This webinar covers what people are obliged to do or not do in a formal flexible working request, and how working flexibly can benefit your business.
