Hi -hoping someone can provide advice here.
Due to return to work in Jan, made verbal request in Sept to return on a 3 day basis. Advised shouldn't be a problem by senior manager. Never got confirmation even after a number of chasers. Then advised by HR last week that line manager thinks not as it will be too difficult to recruit a someone to cover my role part-time!! I am aware that this is a business reason to refuse the request under the legislation but he has no evidence to support this statment. My role is difficult to fill on a full-time basis never mind part-time I would agree (not because I am soo special mind you...) but surely without evidence that it would be harder to fill he can't just assume that is the case??
I also need to now make the request formally in writing in case it needs to go further so does anyone have any examples - I have the DTI pro-forma as a basis but it would be helpful to see proper examples so to speak.
Thanks
