I am so upset and need advice. I work in the nhs admins. I requested for flexible working as am a mum of 3, ages 1,3 and 6. I explained that I need to work some days during the holidays as using my holiday would mean I would have nothing left plus it won't even be enough. This request for the 3 and 6 yr old as the 1 year old goes to nursery fulltime.
My request was denied based on it would be detrimental on my quality of work as my children would take priority and therefore affect the team performance and customer relation. I asked that they give me a trial period but was refused even tho I had done this in a previous trust
I was told I can buy up to 4weeks unpaid leave and i can get 4 days parental no pay leave a yr. I explain that would put in financial hardship but was told "unfortunately that is the price you pay for being a mother". Anothet option was to reduce my hours which I explain does not solve my problem.
I need advice as i want to appeal this decision and have only 14 days. Am so upset ,angry and sad. 😠😢
