Employment: Consultation & Redundancy Alternatives
This programme provides an update on recent case law in the redundancy arena, focusing on three main issues: the obligation to consult on collective redundancies (UK Coal Mining Ltd v National Union of Mineworkers (Northumberland Area) and another (2007)); mobility clauses as an alternative to redundancy (Home Office v Evans (2008)); and the dangers of firing and rehiring employees (Harris v Ralph Martindale & Co Ltd (2007)) as a further alternative to a straightforward redundancy.
