Appendix 2 Guidance for curates and training incumbents concerning requests for part time working to care for a child or other dependent Introduction Curates are office holders who hold posts under Common Tenure on a time limited basis. Office holders have an entitlement to maternity, paternity, parental and adoption leave for the same periods and subject to the same conditions as apply in the case of an employee under the Employment Rights Act 1996, since the introduction of Common Tenure in 2011. These rights are conferred on those who hold office under Common Tenure by the Ecclesiastical Offices (Terms of Service) Directions 2010. However, office holders do not have a right to flexible working following maternity, paternity, parental and adoption leave, as it is understood in the employment context.

A decision regarding a request for flexible working in these circumstances would be taken in consultation between the curate, training incumbent, the relevant Archdeacon and Director of Discipleship and Ministry with advice from the Director of Human Resources.
