Redundancy for Employers

At Askews Legal, our employment law solicitors advise organisations on redundancy and can manage the process on their behalf.

While no business wants to make employees redundant, it is warranted and necessary in some situations.

Redundancy should always be carried out with care and attention to detail to avoid the potential for future claims of unfair or wrongful dismissal. Whatever the reasons for making staff redundant, by engaging the services of our Employment Law Solicitors, you can be assured that employment law best practices will be followed, and we will always consider the best interests of those involved in the process. Core to our ethos is that we will take care of the matter for you as much as possible. This will allow you and your colleagues to focus on your main roles within the organisation. Given the circumstances and the number of people potentially being made redundant, we will recommend a strategy and ensure the correct consultation process is followed.
