The UK's transfer of undertakings legislation has historically been one of the most complex, unpredictable, and commercially significant aspects of the UK's employment law regime. It has far-reaching financial, HR, and practical significance for private and public sector transitions in areas such as outsourcing, contract tenders, and asset disposals. TUPE 2005 will deliver a major restatement of the UK's 1981 transfer of undertakings legislation, and will introduce the following which employment law practitioners, contract managers and administrators will need to master:-
- A new Acquired Rights Directive
- A new concept of service provision change
- Wider protection for employees dismissed because of transfer
- Three new categories of dismissal
This Guide will cover all of these new provisions and their impact on related legislation, whilst also placing the new regulations in the context of what has gone before. The commentary in the Guide is structured in a clear and logical way, thus enabling readers to quickly access the information they require. This Guide includes the full text of the legislation and will also have a section of useful precedents.
- Provides the first practical guide, overview and commentary to these significant new Regulations, in force from October 2005, making it an essential resource for all employment law practitioners
