Homeworking
While the
idea of allowing
employees to work
away from direct
supervision might
raise fears of
slacking, managers
should be aware
that homeworking
can lower staff
turnover, boost
output and cut
costs.
Under current employment law,
employers are obliged to 'seriously
consider' requests for flexible
working from employees with
children under the age of
six or employees with children
with disabilities under the
age of 18. Homeworking - allowing
your employees to work from
home for some or all of their
working week - is a way of
working flexibly. Employers
do not have to agree to the
request if they can show it
will adversely affect the
business. Press
