Restructuring and redundancies are often necessary steps for businesses facing financial challenges, market changes, or evolving operational needs. While these processes can be critical for long-term sustainability, they must be handled carefully to minimise disruption, ensure compliance with employment law, and maintain workforce morale.
At Wollens, we offer expert guidance to businesses navigating restructuring and redundancy processes. Our team provides tailored advice, helping you design and implement a clear, fair, and legally compliant plan. This includes reviewing business objectives, evaluating workforce needs, and ensuring redundancy decisions align with legal obligations, such as consultation requirements and selection criteria.
For employees, we assist in understanding their rights during redundancy, including entitlement to redundancy pay, notice periods, and potential claims for unfair dismissal if procedures are not properly followed.
We recognise the sensitive nature of restructuring and redundancies and prioritise effective communication and fair treatment for all parties involved. Our goal is to help businesses achieve their objectives while minimising legal risks and maintaining positive relationships with their workforce.
Whether you are planning organisational changes, considering redundancies, or need support with employee consultations, Wollens is here to guide you through every step with professionalism and clarity, ensuring a smooth and compliant process.
