Join Tina Chander, Partner and Head of Employment Law and Gemma Clark, Solicitor for episode 4 of The WHorld of Employment Law!
TUPE is one of those words that many people are familiar with, but often do not know what this means in practical terms and what responsibilities this may impose on employers, or even when such obligations may arise. It is important that businesses are aware of where a transfer of undertakings may take place, and consequently the Transfer of Undertakings (Protection of Employment) Regulations 2006 (TUPE Regulations) will apply.
In this episode, Tina and Gemma review:
- What is TUPE?
- Examples of where a transfer of undertakings may take place
- What is the correct way to approach TUPE?
- The importance of an employee liability information (ELI) document
- What can make a TUPE transfer become contentious?
- What happens if an employee objects to the transfer?
