Taylor Review encourages employers to think earlier in the recruitment process about flexible working.
Good Work, the Taylor Review of Modern Working Practices, was led by Matthew Taylor, at the time the CEO of the Royal Society for the Arts, whose brief from the Prime Minister Theresa May was to develop proposals to improve the working lives of UK citizens. The review encouraged earlier thinking about flexible working by employers; commended the Happy to Talk Flexible Working strapline created by Working Families and the Private Sector Employers Working Group, convened by the Equalities Minister Maria Miller MP, 2011-13; and proposed that the 2019 evaluation of the Right to Request should consider, for example, temporary changes in contract for a particular caring requirement.
