Redundancy and Restructuring

Redundancy can be an emotive time for both the employer and employee. The process of redundancies is complex and must be handled appropriately and comply with both contractual and statutory obligations.

Getting this wrong could result in negative publicity for your business and large pay-outs from “Unfair dismissal” claims.
