Is it possible for you to be set up to work from home a couple of days a week? Unfortunately, I don�t think you have any causes of action against your employer. Assuming that you were still under a contract of employment when you took your �career break�, then there are two possible scenarios: (1) your contract of employment contained a mobility clause (ie, stating that your employer can unilaterally require you to work in another location provided the request is reasonable). If this is the case, there is little you can do unless you can demonstrate that the additional time spent travelling is �unreasonable�. The problem is, because you have been travelling to Canary Wharf for nearly a year, it makes the �unreasonable� argument weak as, if it was unreasonable, you should have complained earlier. Secondly, although I agree that a two hour journey one way is tough (I used to do it every day), it is not unusual. (2) Even if your contract did not have a mobility clause, meaning that your employer would not have been permitted to vary your contract without your consent, you would have by now be deemed to have accepted your varied terms of employment as you have been working at the Canary Wharf office for nearly a year.
