UK Employment Appeal Tribunal Clarifies Employer Obligations in a Redundancy
The United Kingdom’s Employment Appeal Tribunal (EAT) ruling in Hendy Group Ltd v Mr D Kennedy [2024] EAT 106 acts as a clear reminder to employers of their obligations when handling redundancies. The case emphasises that employers must properly seek and consider alternative employment for employees facing redundancy and highlights the risks of failing to do so. In particular, merely sending an “at risk” employee the company’s job vacancy list (a popular approach taken by companies) may not be enough to fulfil obligations.
