Flexible working

Flexible working can help everyone to strike a balance between the demands of employment and responsibilities outside of work, enabling ways of working that help you work at your best.

This pocket guide will give RCN reps a quick overview of the benefits of flexible working and information to share with members who may need your support to gain access to flexible working. It can be used when you are out and about or as a reminder when preparing for meetings.

This publication complements the more comprehensive document Working Flexibly to Support a Healthy Work-life Balance.
