Invite an employee to an appeal hearing in relation to a request for flexible working
Key points
While an employee does not have a statutory right of appeal in relation to a flexible working request, the employer is under a duty to handle such requests in a reasonable manner.
If the employer affords the employee a right of appeal, it can be helpful to invite the employee to an appeal hearing.
When inviting the employee to an appeal hearing, the employer should bear in mind the need to complete the process within the specified time frame.
