The Right to Time Off for Study or Training (Scotland) Amendment Regulations 2001
These Regulations amend the Right to Time Off for Study or Training (Scotland) Regulations 1999 (S.I. 1999/1058) (“the 1999 Regulations”), which set out the standard of achievement and the qualification awarding bodies as prescribed for in sections 63A(1)(c) and 63A(2)(c) of the Employment Rights Act 1996. An employee who has not attained the relevant standard of achievement has the right to take time off for study or training leading to a relevant qualification, as awarded or authenticated by the specified qualification awarding bodies. These Regulations amend the 1999 Regulations to reflect qualifications developments and changes in the list of awarding bodies.
