Employees of all companies will be able to request flexible working arrangements when they start new jobs under proposals to be published by ministers.

It is understood that the Department for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy (BEIS) plans to allow millions of workers to request flexible working from day one at a new employer, replacing the current 26-week period.

The move, which one industry source said could be announced in the coming days, has been planned since before the 2019 general election but has been thrown into sharp relief by the pandemic’s profound effect on working patterns.

One insider pointed that employees would be given the right to request – rather than demand – flexible working, encompassing the time, location and hours of work.

The goal for most businesses is to grow, so the concept of bad growth may seem counterintuitive to a lot of business owners.

However, if that growth is not sustainable in the long-term it can become little more than a drain on your resources.

Without this, you may quickly find yourself in a position where the growing demand from customers begins to exceed what your business can actually handle, which can lead to losing custom, compromising on the quality of your service, or overspending on new hires, all in an effort to keep up.

Knowing when to scale

There is no hard and fast rule for when it is appropriate to begin scaling, and different … Read more
