New ‘flexible working request’ documents available.
Content update: Epoq have today added new templates to the range of Rapidocs templates available to our customers. The new documents are for flexible working requests, and are filed in the Personal/Workplace category. We have created the following two letters to assist employees in the process of applying for flexible working from their employers. They are designed to be sold together.
The details are as follows:
1. Application for flexible working
Description: Use this document to request from your employer that you work flexibly. The document will also help you to determine whether you qualify for the right to make an application for flexible working under section 80F of the Employment Rights Act 1996. If you do not qualify for this statutory right, you can still use this document to ask your employer to change your working pattern.
2.Flexible working appeal letter
Description: Use this document to appeal against a refusal by your employer of your application under section 80F Employment Rights Act 1996 to work a flexible working pattern. Your employer should have met with you to discuss your flexible working request and have notified you of their decision within 14 days of that meeting. If you disagree with your employee’s decision, you have a right of appeal. If you wish to exercise that right, you must make your appeal in writing within 14 days of receiving your employer’s written notice refusing your request. This document will assist you to set out the grounds for making the appeal.
If you are an existing Epoq customer and are interested in supplying these documents through your service, please contact your account or project manager in the first instance.
