Flexible Working Pack
ERA 2025 changed the rules. Requests now come in from day one, refusals need to pass a reasonableness test, and most managers don't know their obligations. This covers the request, the discussion, the decision, and the appeal.
Customised to you
All documents pre-filled with your company name, contacts and specific details.
ERA 2025-ready
Built for the new reasonableness test and mandatory consultation requirements coming in 2027.
Plain English
Clear, jargon-free language that employees and managers can actually follow.
Tribunal-ready process
Refusal letters prompt you to document your assessment and alternatives. Appeals governance specifies who can hear an appeal and their authority to overturn.
