Flexible Working Policy

Employers: Create a flexible work policy for your business with our "Download Now" Flexible Working Policy.

A flexible work policy is simple to create with Lawpack’s Flexible Working Policy.

Any employee can ask for flexible working arrangements. But employees who care for adults, or have a child aged 16 (18 if the child is disabled) and under, are all entitled by law to request flexible working. 

If the employee does make such a request, the law sets out an employment procedure that must be followed in considering that request. 

Following Lawpack’s Flexible Working Policy will ensure that you adhere to these requirements of employment law.

Drafted for general use, this flexible work policy sets out the rights of the employee and employee as a result of current legislation relating to flexible working.

Your Flexible Working Policy covers the important issues, including:

• Staff eligibility for flexible working
• Making and responding to the employee's request for flexible working
• Meetings and decisions on flexible working
• Refusal and acceptance of the employee's request for flexible working
• Appeals
