Help for businesses making fair redundancies
The law is highly prescriptive on what constitutes redundancy. Expert redundancy advice is vital to ensure a fair redundancy process that promotes the rights and obligations of you as employers and of your employees alike.
Expert Employment Law solicitors can advise on all aspects of redundancy – including the redundancy consultation process – and deliver redundancy support to ensure a fair and compliant procedure.
This is even more important since the introduction of the Protection from Redundancy (Pregnancy and Family Leave) Act 2023. This extends protection from redundancy when an employee notifies their employer of their pregnancy if this is after 6 April 2024. Please see more information here.
If you have a genuine redundancy situation, you should follow a fair and reasonable redundancy process to avoid ending up in an Employment Tribunal. As expert Employment Law solicitors, we can explore all alternatives to redundancy and help you conduct a meaningful redundancy consultation process should redundancies prove unavoidable. In addition, we can draw up relevant pools of employees from which to fairly and objectively select for redundancy. We can also advise on who has priority when looking at suitable alternative employment.
Our redundancy support for you – including Settlement Agreement advice – starts from just £295 + VAT per hour. We also offer two cost-effective fixed-fee redundancy legal advice packages for you.
Our redundancy advice package for making less than 20 of your employees redundant (from £2000 plus VAT) includes up to five hours’ advice, a tailored redundancy process plan, a guide for managers on handling redundancies and personalised ‘at risk’ and redundancy dismissal letters.
We also offer onsite help and support and can tailor a support package where you are making more than 20 people redundant. We will discuss this and offer a fixed price based on your requirements and resources.
