Redundancy

Restructuring can cover a vast range of situations, including changes to a company’s structure, business model or processes. It can be similar to a redundancy process in that it may involve a reduction in work of a particular kind being required.

Not all organisational change will result in a redundancy situation, however each case will turn on the circumstances and specific facts. Melanie Pimenta, Senior Solicitor at Clarkslegal explores the considerations when undertaking a fair redundancy process.
