Redundancy Legalities
A company my husband works for made two people redundant. On the same day, they created two new openings, with different job titles to the redundant people but similar job roles. This sounds a bit of a grey area but is this perfectly legal?
These new job openings have now come in 'above' my husband's (and other people's) position in the management hierarchy. This was not discussed at the initial consultation with employees regarding restructuring etc. Should employees have been notified of this beforehand?
Also, one of the new job roles comprises about 50% of my husband's current job role. I have a feeling that he might also find himself pushed out or made redundant in the not too distant future. He is one of only two employees remaining from the 'old' management regime. Is there anything that can be done about this?
