New legislation is in force which will apply to transfers that take place on or after 1 July 2024. It brings reforms to the consultation obligations, with the intention to ‘remove unnecessary and outdated bureaucracy following our exit from the EU’ without reducing workers’ rights.
Businesses will be allowed to consult their employees directly if there are no current employee representatives in place, giving them greater flexibility to inform and discuss a transfer with their employees. This will apply to:
- businesses with fewer than 50 employees undertaking a transfer of any size; and
- businesses of any size undertaking a transfer of fewer than 10 employees.
