Flexibility in employment covers how an employee’s working pattern can be changed to fit personal circumstances, including requests to work differently, commute times, and altered hours. A solicitor in this area helps with preparing and responding to flexible working requests, drafting employer policies and agreements, and advising on potential discrimination or breach of contract issues if a request is mishandled. It also covers the process and timelines for handling requests and related disputes.
The right to request flexible working aims to protect an employee’s ability to balance work with personal responsibilities, while ensuring employers set clear procedures and consider legitimate business needs. A solicitor can review the employer’s decision, advise on unlawful refusals, and, if needed, assist with resolving disputes through internal process or an Employment Tribunal, all within the statutory framework that governs flexible working.
