Tell us your experiences of being a working parent

30 January 2008

We need to submit as much evidence as possible from our members to the Government’s review of flexible working and we need your help. The more evidence we can give, the more chance we have of extending the right to as many parents as possible.

If you are a parent of a child aged 6 – 18 and you would like to work more flexibly, please reply to let us know:

  • Why your working hours are a problem
  • How you would like them to be changed
  • How this would help you to balance your work and family life better

Similarly, if your hours have been changed and it has helped you, please let us know what the problem was before, and how the change in your hours has helped.

If your children are now grown up and you would have liked to change your working hours when they were younger, it would be very helpful to hear from you about your experience.

Please email us at: parentsandcarers@usdaw.org.uk

All evidence that we submit to the government will be anonymous.
