training
Employee rights to request training commence 6 April - 05 March 2010
6th April sees a number of changes for businesses this year and not just the new tax rates for higher paid employees. From April, employers with 250 staff or more are obliged to give serious consideration to requests from employees who wish to take time off to train.
Employees can ask for time to pursue training that will enhance both their own performance and that of the business. The nature of the training either can lead to an accredited, recognised qualification or it can simply improve skills that are relevant to the role of the employee or to the workplace.
