What do I ask about dropping a day at work ?

I currently work 3 days a week. I’d like to drop to two, so how do I go about it ? Do I just ask my manager, or is there a process I should go through ? Thanks.

I am not sure as I have only really worked full time
But I have seen on here people pointing to acas which explains how to apply
www.acas.org.uk/making-a-flexible-working-request
I hope this link works!

As pp said, submit a flexible working request. But also be prepared to provide a reason why you want the reduction of hours and how you think you can still do your job in two days as opposed to three.

Thanks for your replies. If I do ask it will be with the idea of giving my day to someone else, as I believe we are short and they might be taking someone else on.
