Flexible working and time off

Workers have a right to flexible working after 26 weeks in a job

Flexible working

Usdaw members who are parents or carers may find this right particularly helpful as it can be hard going to get hours of work that fit in with looking after family members.

Anyone can ask their employer for a change in their working hours and the employer should carefully consider the request.

This is an important right. It is called the Right to Request Flexible Working.
