Morrisons has shaken up its flexible working policy at its Bradford head office.
The supermarket introduced a four-day work week for staff four years ago with the catch that they were required to work 13 Saturdays a year.

Sainsbury’s and M&S also introduced flexible working policies that allowed staff to work compressed weeks last year.
