Our expertise includes supporting redundancy programmes ranging in scale from large and multi-jurisdictional to smaller groups and individuals.
We’ll work with you to devise and implement your redundancy and/or restructuring strategy, including changes to terms and conditions, redundancies, multi-jurisdictional programmes and individual, specialist requirements. We can also advise on employment tribunal claims and litigation – whether brought by employees or collectively by their representatives.
Collective redundancies
We’ll work with you (including where ‘fire and re-hire’ is contemplated) to:
- Identify when the collective redundancy consultation obligations thresholds are met and help you to manage this risk
- Ensure you comply with collective redundancy consultation obligations, including staggered and/or overlapping processes (as well as coordinating advice across different jurisdictions)
- Ensure that obligations owed to your employees’ representatives are met, with bespoke training if needed
- Manage redundancy sequencing, pooling, selection and subsequent individual consultation processes
- Implement redundancy severance proposals, including preparing and negotiating settlement agreements or COT3s
