For the first time employees will have the right to request time for study or training after legal changes come into effect today.
Time to Train will give workers in businesses which employ more than 250 people the legal right to request time off to take up relevant training.
These rates apply to all journeys on or after 1 December 2009 until further notice.
From the change on 1 December 2009, the revised rates will take effect from the specified date rather than one month later, allowing them to reflect fuel prices more quickly. For one month from the date of change, employers may use either the previous or new current rates, as they choose. Employers may therefore make or require supplementary payments if they so wish, but are under no obligation to do either.

The flat rate percentages were re-calculated in December 2008 to reflect the temporary reduction in the standard rate of VAT. The new rates based on 17.5 percent rate of VAT are now effective from 1 January 2010. To check the rates for your type of business follow this link: http://www.hmrc.gov.uk/pbr2009/pbrn33.pdf
