Law - Redundancy

Redundancy - the key developments

• When assessing the amount of a protective award for failure to consult on collective redundancies, it is relevant both to consider the culpability of the employer and the harm or potential harm of the default; awards should not be tailored to the length of time that consultation would have taken (case 1)

Case details are available at www.employmentappeals.gov.uk (EAT) and www.bailii.org (Court of Appeal).
