Many employers are not aware of their legal obligations in relation to flexible working, giving rise to a range of claims such as unfair dismissal
Flexible Working Legislation
Most individuals are unaware that all employees with six months’ service or longer have the right to request flexible working. Most flexible working applications are made by employees who have childcare or other caring obligations. However, many employers are not aware of the flexible working regulations and their legal obligations in relation to flexible working and reject applications, giving rise to claims such as constructive dismissal and/or discrimination as well as a breach of the rules on flexible working.
We can help you with your application for flexible working. If your application has been declined, we can help you with advice on your legal position and on how you can deal with a situation where you do not want to work the hours required by your employer. This will often involve either agreeing with your employer that you leave with a settlement or filing a tribunal claim if you and your employer cannot agree terms.
