What Are Your Rights if You're Facing Redundancy?

With many businesses continuing to adapt to changing economic conditions, redundancy remains a reality for some employees. While redundancy can be a legitimate reason for dismissal, employers must still follow a fair process and treat staff with respect throughout.

Employers should also consider suitable alternative roles where available. If the correct procedures are not followed, or if redundancy is used unfairly, employees may have grounds to challenge the decision.

If made redundant, employees may be entitled to redundancy pay and notice pay.

Seeking legal advice at an early stage can help employees understand their rights, assess any settlement offers and avoid costly mistakes. Obtaining clear and practical guidance can provide reassurance to help employees make informed decisions.
