The application of the flexi-time scheme for local authority staff who have resumed full office attendance following restricted attendance during the pandemic remains unchanged. 

Following on from the issuing by the Department of Public Expenditure and Reform of their Blended Working Policy Framework document as it relates to the Civil and Public sector, the local authority sector have developed its own Blended Working Framework and Policy document. This is now being considered by the sector and individual local authorities and it is planned that local authorities will move to the implementation of blended working in the sector. 

The application of flexi-time within the blended working environment will form part of the discussions on the implementation of blended working in the sector.
