Requests for flexible working from employees can be a challenge.
Deal with it badly, and your organisation could end up with tribunal claims for unfair or constructive dismissal and discrimination.
It’s vital that everyone responsible for dealing with flexible working requests has the skills and knowhow to manage the process in a fair way, but also in a way that is practical and makes business sense.
Who should attend?
Anyone in a line-management role, including HR as well as business owners and decision-makers.
