Employment Rights BillContribution
Clause 25 will modernise the collective redundancy framework to ensure that it works for employees and employers alike. We have listened to feedback from business on the clause as introduced, which required consultation whenever 20 or more redundancies were proposed to be made across an employer’s organisation. Businesses told us that this would have put them in a constant state of consultation, so the changes proposed would ensure that this clause extends protections for employees while limiting burdens for employers.
