This area covers when an employer reduces staff through redundancy and related decisions. It includes advising on lawful selection, handling consultation with staff and unions, and negotiating settlement where appropriate. A solicitor helps draft and review redundancy notices, collective redundancy notices under the Trade Union and Labour Relations (Consolidation) Act 1992, and any associated documentation such as a redundancy consultation strategy and individual severance agreements. They also advise on the evidential and procedural requirements to avoid unfair dismissal claims and help prepare representation for any statutory processes or Employment Tribunal claims if applicable.
Redundancy decisions can have serious consequences for a person’s livelihood and status. A solicitor provides protection around deadlines, eligibility for statutory redundancy pay, and rights to appeal or challenge the process if it appears to be biased or unfair. They ensure documentation is precise, compliant with statutory requirements, and that any settlement avoids unintended legal exposure.
