Have you recently been made redundant from your job or are you about to be made redundant? If so, our Peterborough redundancy solicitors can help you understand whether your employer acted lawfully.
To avoid making compulsory redundancies, your employer must first follow fair redundancy procedures by considering making a reduction in recruitment and limiting overtime opportunities. If those steps have not improved the business, your employer might seek to make redundancies.
There are four situations in which redundancy is justified:
The workload is diminishing
There is no longer a need for employees to carry out a particular job or function
There is a change in the location of the business
Your employer is no longer carrying on with the business
If you are made redundant under other circumstances, you may be able to make a claim for compensation for unfair dismissal. We can advise you on your employment rights, whether proper procedure was followed in your situation and potentially negotiate a better severance deal for your termination.
