Redundancies

Redundancy is a reason for a dismissal. However, when you are going through a redundancy as a worker you have distinct legal rights:

  • The right to go through a redundancy consultation.
  • The right to receive reasonable periods of time away from work in order to look for further employment or attend interviews
  • Your employer must follow a redundancy procedure
  • Your employer must explore alternative positions for you within the company
  • Your employer must pay you any accrued holiday pay, notice pay and if you are entitled, redundancy pay.
