ABOUT THIS EPISODE
In this episode of DC Talks, Emma O’Connor explains how employers should approach flexible working requests in practice. She outlines the legal framework, highlights the need for a fair and consultative process, and explains when requests can be refused with clear, evidence‑based reasoning.
