This is a draft item of legislation. This draft has since been made as a UK Statutory Instrument: The Employee Study and Training (Qualifying Period of Employment) Regulations 2010 No. 800
(This note is not part of the Regulations)
These regulations relate to the right to make an application under section 63D of the Employment Rights Act 1996 (“the 1996 Act”) to enable an employee to spend time undertaking study or training.
The right to make a section 63D application is available to “qualifying employees”. Regulation 2 specifies that employees must have 26 weeks’ continuous service in order to be a qualifying employee.
