Flexible Summer 

For members in Lloyds Banking Group.

Flexible Summer is a commitment from Lloyds Banking Group to relax the need for hybrid working colleagues to work from an office 40% of the time over the summer holidays.

Last updated: 05/09/2023

Hybrid workers who:

• have young families to support with some of the school holidays 
• may want to be closer to home during summer 
• want to make the most of logging off and enjoying the warm weather without commuting

Flexible Summer is available to all hybrid workers with effect from Summer 2023 (for 2023, this covers the last two weeks of July and all of August). 

This is not about colleagues taking responsibility for children or other dependants when they are working during this Flexible Summer period. This is simply about making it easier for them to be around at the start and end of the working day.

Team events and collaboration days may still run over this period. Whilst there will be more flexibility, if managers need their team to come together, colleagues will be expected to come in.

Yes – you must notify your line manager in advance that you plan on adopting this.

If requested, you are still required to go into the office to meet business and customer needs
