New TUPE Regulations
Thorogood Publishing, Oct 2007, Pages: 202
The new TUPE regulations came into force on 6 April 2006 – what do they mean for your future business transfers? Find out in this concise Special Briefing.
The old TUPE regulations had become bogged down in confusion and uncertainty. In 2002, for example, in the case of Complete Clean Ltd v Savage (EAT 2002) the Employment Appeal Tribunal stated: ‘The law is in a state of critical UK uncertainty. It is almost impossible to give accurate advice to [those] involved in possible transfers with any degree of certainty.’
And so the regulations on the Transfer of Undertakings (Protection of Employment) (to give TUPE its full title) were revised to address many of the previous uncertainties. They now apply to all business transfers and include long-term business relationships for contracted services.
This Special Briefing will:
- Deliver comprehensive background to the new TUPE regulations.
- Ensure you know the circumstances where TUPE can apply, as well as where TUPE will apply.
- Clarify the impact the new regulations will have on pensions.
- Update you on the effect of TUPE on HR issues.
- Provide a summary of the legal implications of TUPE.
- Detail your obligations to inform and consult.
- Distil the new legislation into a concise and structured update.
Who should read this Special Briefing?
- Personnel Directors and Managers
- Managing Directors and CEO’s
- In-house legal advisors
- Professional advisors and HR consultants
- Venture capital executives
- All those involved with the acquisition or disposal of a business, the internal transfer of a business or the contracting-out (or back in) of in-house services
