Description

"When a business is sold by one employer to another, or the responsibility for providing a service transfers from one employer to another, what happens to the dedicated workforce? Do the employees concerned have the right to work for the new employer? And if so, do they retain the contractual and other employment rights that they enjoyed prior to the transfer, or is the new employer entitled to vary their contracts in order to harmonise their terms and conditions with those of any existing employees? These are the main issues with which the Transfer of Undertakings (Protection of Employment) Regulations 2006 SI 2006/246 (TUPE) - the focus of this Handbook - are concerned."--Back cover.
