Redundancy
Redundancy is when you dismiss someone because:
you close your business or the employee's workplace
there is a diminishing need for a particular type of work
The job needs to disappear before you can make an employee redundant - it is not a legal redundancy if you plan to replace the employee.
Keeping employees informed
If you are going to make 20 or more employees redundant within 90 days, you must consult the employees' trade union or other elected representatives in addition to consulting with the employees as individuals. If you make fewer than 20 employees redundant, you must still consult the individual employees. By law you don't have to consult their representatives, but it's good practice to do so if feasible and may help prevent unfair dismissal claims.
