TUPE becomes an issue for employers when a company, or a part of an organisation, transfers from one employer to another. These regulations come into play if a service within a company transfers to a new provider. For example, an expired IT service provider contract comes to an end and another one takes over.
TUPE regulations protect your employee’s rights when they get transferred to a new employer. TUPE is a set of rules that need to be complied with correctly to avoid court claims.
If your business in this position, speak to Employer Advice for FREE TUPE advice tailored to business owners and employers.
