Employment law - Redundancy

By Rehana Hussain of Charles Gregory Solicitors Limited posted in Employment on Tuesday, May 3, 2016.

Unfortunately redundancy is back in the news. We hear that many BHS employees may lose their jobs if a buyer is not found soon. In this article we advise on how you can identify if a redundancy situation is genuine or not.

Redundancy occurs where the employer's business, or part of the business, has ceased to operate, the employer's business has moved to a different place; and/or the business' need for work of a particular type has ceased or diminished.

Please note, in redundancy situations, it is the role, not the person, who is made redundant.

Is the redundancy genuine?

Genuine redundancy can occur, for example, when the work a person does is no longer needed due to a downturn in business, a new line of work which requires a different skill set, or a new process being introduced. Click here for more details..
