Redundancy
Redundancies can be a fact of life in all businesse but with particular impact in the smaller business, where carrying surplus staff in the long term is a shortcut to disaster. A shift in the economic or business climate, a change in technology, a merger or a move to a new location can all make redundancies inevitable.
Redundancy is a complex issue, and can be full of pitfalls. To avoid falling foul of employment tribunals, it is essential to follow demonstrably fair procedures.
