Training Rights
If you are working for an employer who has 250 or more employees,
then as from 6th April 2010 you have the right to apply for unpaid
time off work to study or receive training. But the training and
study must be connected to your employer’s business.
This right is pursuant to section 40 of the Apprenticeships, Skills,
Children and Learning Act 2009.
An employer can refuse if the training or study will not improve
your performance at his business but otherwise where it is a reasonable
request, it should be granted.”
