Giving Carers the right to flexible working hours may also be the start of a purge on Carers receiving Carer's Allowance... make work "possible" despite the minimum 35 hours that are still required to be classed as a Carer, earn over £100... end of Carer's Allowance.

I've already had it "suggested" to me that whilst the twins are in school (now college) I could be "gainfully employed" elsewhere. But after the nighttime duties I am usually too knackered in the morning...... "So take an afternoon job" it was "suggested".... "But what happens during holidays, medical appointments, when their course hours mean they are home in the afternoons, etc. ?"

"Your boss would have to let you have the time off under upcoming changes we forsee being legislated".
