Denial of Telework – Surrey

An employee was denied the opportunity to telework when many of their colleagues have been given the same opportunity. The employee is an excellent employee with a great record of employment.

We feel this is a without merit denial and request the employee be allowed to telework as soon as possible.

Status: This grievance has been heard at step 1 and was later resolved at step 1. On a without prejudice basis the employer has promised to address the issue after PARP as it was felt that would be a better time to let the employee start teleworking.
