Pot calling kettle….

By Philip - Monday, September 1st, 2008

The Telegraph has a piece on Tesco changing their “ten items or less” sign to the more grammatically correct “ten items or fewer.” It’s quite ironic, in an Alanis Morissette sort of way, that the sentence in bold under the headline has such a spelling howler though. Read it and weep!

Update: The spelling error has been corrected but a grammatical error has not…tsk, tsk.

Flexible Working Consultation Launched

By Emma - Monday, September 1st, 2008

You may remember that after announcing a decision to extend the right to flexible working to parents of older children in November 2007 the government commissioned Imelda Walsh, Sainsbury’s HR Director, to carry out a review of flexible working which reported in May this year.  The government has now launched a consultation on flexible working following on from the recommendations made by Ms Walsh in her report.  Her principal recommendation that the right to request flexible working should be extended to parents of children of 16 and under has been accepted and the consultation relates primarily to how to make the process simpler for businesses and how to raise awareness of the right to employees and employers.  The consultation closes on 18 November 2008.
