    Default Received " Potential Redundancy " letter today

    Hello

    I just received the " Potential Redundancy " letter today, my director told me that nothing been decided yet.

    My direct boss will meet with me next Thuesday to discuss the potential position.

    I was taken over on TUPE last year September and wonder if the time with my former company counts wor my time.

    Could I get some advise, should I get a lawyer involved, or should I listen to what they have to tell me first?

    Thank you in advance for any help.

    Hi Hamish

    TUPE protects employees whose employment is transferred from one employer to another by preserving continuity of employment, so length of service is maintained, as are existing terms and conditions.

    Therefore, for the purpose of redundancy, your length of service will be from when you started with your original employer. If you have any doubts, make sure you raise issues at your meeting.

    Please keep us informed with how you get on. I hope this has helped.

    Hiya Employee Advisor

    Thanks for your quick answer.

    Just one more question, is there are a timeframe on when TUPE runs out and my new employer can do what he wants??

    Cheers and thanks in advance
