Pay Reduction Likely

Leaving early every day without making time up

Is this considered a reasonable adjustment under UK Law?

Overview

Reducing hours usually means reducing pay.

For Employees

You can't usually work fewer hours for full pay (unless using disability leave for treatment). Ask for a part-time contract.

For Employers

Pay is for hours worked. Reducing hours permanently requires a contract change (pro-rata).

Key Considerations

  • Part-time contract.
  • Pro-rata pay.
