TUPE

Legal advice on TUPE transfers

If the business you work for is changing ownership, or if the work you do is being outsourced elsewhere, your employment may be protected under the Transfer of Undertaking (Protection of Employment) Regulations (TUPE). Generally, if TUPE applies, your employment should automatically transfer to the new owner or contractor on your existing terms and conditions. Your continuity of service should also be preserved.

TUPE is a complex area of law. We can advise you whether TUPE is likely to apply to your situation or not, and make sure you understand your rights. We can also help you if your new employer is seeking to change your terms and conditions following a TUPE transfer.
