Reject flexible working requestA flexible working request rejection letter covers an employer's decision to refuse an employee's request to work flexibly. The letter must set out the business reasons for the refusal and explain the right of appeal. The law on flexible working requests is contained in the Employment Rights Act 1996 and the Flexible Working Regulations 2014.
This template enables employers to properly address and reject a flexible working request if it cannot be accommodated within the organization due to specific reasons specified under UK law. The letter allows employers to clearly communicate the grounds for the decision, ensuring compliance with the statutory requirements and avoiding potential legal disputes or claims.
The template typically provides a pre-drafted text that outlines the reasons for rejecting the request, which may include operational implications, inability to reassign work, negative impact on customer service, detrimental effects on the business, cost implications, or any other valid justification that aligns with the laws and regulations governing flexible working in the UK.
Employers can use this template as a tool to ensure consistent and legally compliant communication with employees who have submitted a request for flexible working arrangements. By providing a clear and detailed response, the employer can maintain transparency and demonstrate that the request was genuinely considered, even if it was ultimately declined for valid reasons.

This contract sets out the type of technical consulting and technical-consulting-related services to be completed by the technical consultant on behalf of the client, with consideration for expectations around quality and delivery timescales, as well as any mitigating circumstances. This contract allows for payment to be made by the client to the technical consulting firm or individual technical consultant on a weekly or monthly basis but can easily be edited to account for other payment schedules and could be altered to include bonuses conditional on performance. It can also be fully customised with the details of the two parties and the duration of the contract and can be printed, downloaded and edited freely as part of our mission to open source business legals.
