Redundancy law – guidance for employers
Redundancy is a form of dismissal that occurs when an employer needs to reduce their workforce. Redundancy can occur for a variety of reasons, such as a downturn in business, a reorganization, or the introduction of new technology.
Redundancy can be an overwhelming and unsettling prospect for both employers and employees and getting it wrong can be costly on several levels – financially, in reputational terms and potentially damaging to the remaining staff in the business.
At Thomas Mansfield Solicitors we regularly advise employers who are considering making redundancies. Download our guide on the important issues employers should consider when embarking on a redundancy programme ensuring they avoid these pitfalls and follow a fair and lawful redundancy process.
