6. Making an Application

All requests must be made in writing by filling the application from FW (A). Any request under this policy must include:

Date of the application.
A statement that it is a request for flexible working.
The changes that the employee is seeking to their terms and conditions
The date on which the employee would like the terms and conditions to come into effect.
Whether or not the employee has made a previous request for flexible working or a request for a predictable working arrangement and if so when the employee made that application.

All requests, including any appeals, must be decided within a period of two months from when the manager first receives a valid request, unless the manager and employee agree to extend this period. If an extension is agreed, the manager should confirm this in writing to the employee.
