Flexible working request
A formal request to change how, when or where you work, such as different hours, compressed hours or working from home. In the UK you can ask from your first day, and your employer must consider it reasonably, though it can refuse for set business reasons.
A plain-English explanation of how this usually works in the UK, not legal advice. Rules change, so check your own situation. For free, impartial advice on work rights, try Acas. Disclaimer.
