Children and Families Act 2014

Section 132: Dealing with applications

696.This section deals with changes to the procedure which employers must follow when dealing with a flexible working request.

697.Subsection (2) amends section 80G of the ERA to remove the requirement on employers to follow a statutory procedure when considering flexible working requests. This procedure is currently set out in the Flexible Working (Procedural Requirements) Regulations 2002 (S.I. 2002/3207). These regulations will be revoked. In place of this, subsection (2) introduces a duty on employers to consider requests in a reasonable manner.

698.Subsection (2) also amends section 80G to introduce a requirement on the employer to notify the employee of its decision within a certain period of time. Subsection (3) provides that the employer must give its decision within 3 months beginning on the date that the application is made. This period can be extended by agreement between the employer and employee.

699.Subsection (4) sets out the circumstances in which the employer can treat a flexible working request as withdrawn. They are where an employee fails to attend two consecutive meetings to discuss the request or an appeal with their employer without good reason.

Nodiadau Esboniadol

Testun a grëwyd gan yr adran o’r llywodraeth oedd yn gyfrifol am destun y Ddeddf i esbonio beth mae’r Ddeddf yn ceisio ei wneud ac i wneud y Ddeddf yn hygyrch i ddarllenwyr nad oes ganddynt gymhwyster cyfreithiol. Cyflwynwyd Nodiadau Esboniadol ym 1999 ac maent yn cyd-fynd â phob Deddf Gyhoeddus ac eithrio Deddfau Adfeddiannu, Cronfa Gyfunol, Cyllid a Chyfnerthiad.

Asesiadau Effaith

Impact Assessments generally accompany all UK Government interventions of a regulatory nature that affect the private sector, civil society organisations and public services. They apply regardless of whether the regulation originates from a domestic or international source and can accompany primary (Acts etc) and secondary legislation (SIs). An Impact Assessment allows those with an interest in the policy area to understand:

  • Why the government is proposing to intervene;
  • The main options the government is considering, and which one is preferred;
  • How and to what extent new policies may impact on them; and,
  • The estimated costs and benefits of proposed measures.
