Worried about how TUPE applies to your employees and wider business? As an experienced HR professional, I can help you understand and implement complex regulations.
The Transfer of Undertakings Protection of Employment (TUPE) is a vital legal framework that shields employees and their benefits when their employment undergoes a change in ownership.
TUPE usually covers the following;
- Business takeovers: transferring a business or a portion of it from one employer to another.
- Service provision changes: shifting services through outsourcing, insourcing or assigning to a new contractor.
When employees transition to new employers TUPE guarantees that workers retain their initial terms and conditions of employment, including continuity of service. Whether your business is a large corporation or a small local establishment, TUPE applies across the board.
Non-compliance with TUPE regulations can lead to financial penalties, which can be as substantial as 13 weeks’ pay for each affected employee. With my expert guidance, you can mitigate these risks and ensure a smooth transition.
I specialise in guiding businesses through the intricacies of employee transfers, ensuring compliance with the law and safeguarding the rights of both employers and employees.
I offer a comprehensive TUPE management service that begins with assessing whether TUPE applies to your business and extends to guiding you through the entire process.
My services include:
- Determining applicability: identifying if TUPE regulations apply to your business.
- Electing employee representatives: assisting in the selection of employee representatives.
- Consultation process: guiding you through the necessary consultation procedures.
- Documentation support: providing up-to-date advice and essential documents.
