Response to the Matthew Taylor Independent Review of Employment Practices in the Modern Economy
14 August 2017
Carers UK's submission to the Matthew Taylor Independent Review of Employment Practices in the Modern Economy. Our suggestions included introducing a statutory right to 5-10 days paid care leave from work and a day one right to request flexible working. In addition, we suggested that carers are given greater support by their employers to allow them to juggle their caring responsibilities and to progress in the workplace.
