Parents of children aged under six or of disabled children under 18 have the right to apply to work flexibly and the University will consider their applications seriously. Eligible employees can request a change to the hours they work, the times when they are required to work or their location of work. This covers working patterns such as reduced hours, job-sharing, staggered hours and term-time working. However there is not an automatic right to work flexibly as there will always be circumstances when the University is unable to accommodate the staff member's desired work pattern.
