A new hire signing a contract and becoming employed by a company would have conditions that may include the right to work remotely initially. I am puzzled about the six-months business. A new hire may negotiate that from the outset so I am not sure how important that is.

The twelfth one is: "Employee is the subject of ongoing or recently concluded formal disciplinary processes". Will Ms Mangan give her views on that reason for an employer not to accede to a request to work remotely?
