I am currently working on a 16 hour contract, but most weeks it is a lot more. For the last month I have been requesting a cut back in my hours on a two week basis. My partner works nights and needs to sleep to recover from the night before. I have been requesting to work a 9 -2 shift on the Monday and the Tuesday so I can pick the kids up from school and then work a 9- 6-30 shift on the Wednesday. My partner has just rang me from work saying that I need to get it sorted tomorrow as his work are threatening to take him to a disaplinary due to his sick leave in December. They have come to the conclusion he's not getting enough rest. Can my employer refuse my request?
