Question to the HM Treasury:

To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer, what proportion of staff in her Department have flexible working arrangements; and how many of those work compressed hours.

HMT is committed to enhancing the working lives of all employees by supporting a healthy balance between professional responsibilities and personal commitments. To support this, HMT offers a Flexible Working Hours Scheme (FWHS), which allows employees to vary their start and finish times across the working week to achieve a balance between the demands of their jobs and personal commitments.

As at the end of financial quarter 1 for 2025/26 (30^th June 2025), there were 160 active staff at HMT working full-time compressed hours.
