Redundancies and Restructures
Managing change within a business can be difficult and risky, particularly when it comes to making redundancies and changing jobs and benefits. We help businesses achieve their aims, and avoid Employment Tribunal claims.
Redundancies
We know how to help you achieve the cuts you need to make. A badly handled redundancy exercise can easily land you with an expensive Tribunal claim. You need to take care not only with the procedures you follow, but also the way you select individuals. Making people redundant is never without risk. We give you the inside track so you can achieve the savings you want as quickly as possible, with minimal disruption and the lowest risk. Our help includes:
- Putting the right business case together
- Coming up with and applying fair selection criteria
- Consultation processes, including collective consultation
Business Restructures
Changing jobs and benefits on a restructure, or to save costs, needn't lead to claims for unfair dismissal or constructive dismissal, provided you know what you are doing! We can support you to make the greatest changes possible with the minimum risk, and help with:
- Negotiating contractual changes
- Forcing contractual changes through
- Outsourcing
- Redundancies
