Solicitors Redundancy

Redundancy occurs when an employer decides a particular role is no longer needed—often due to business closure, restructuring, or reduced workload. UK law lays down clear rules on how redundancies should be carried out, aiming to ensure fairness in both selection and financial compensation. Understanding these rights is essential if you’re at risk of losing your job.

What do I need to know about redundancy in the UK?

  • Fair selection: Employers must use objective criteria (e.g., skills, performance) and consult with employees before finalising who will be made redundant.
  • Redundancy pay: If you’ve worked continuously for two years or more, you’re typically entitled to statutory redundancy pay. The amount depends on your age, weekly pay, and length of service.
  • Notice period: You’re entitled to a minimum notice period based on your length of service, unless your contract specifies a longer period.
  • Alternative employment: Employers should consider suitable alternative roles in the organisation to avoid making employees redundant unnecessarily.
  • Consultation requirements: Larger-scale redundancies (20 or more employees) trigger collective consultation obligations, ensuring employees have a chance to voice concerns.

How can a solicitor help with redundancy, and how much does it cost?

A solicitor can:

  • Review the redundancy process: Checking whether fair selection criteria and procedures were followed.
  • Advise on settlement agreements: Ensuring you understand and negotiate any severance terms or legal waivers.
  • Represent you in disputes: If you believe you’ve been unfairly selected, a solicitor can bring a claim for unfair dismissal or discrimination if relevant.

Costs vary according to complexity and solicitor experience. Many charge hourly rates (commonly £150–£300), while some offer fixed-fee packages—for instance, reviewing a settlement agreement. If you need to challenge a redundancy decision at an employment tribunal, fees can rise due to the extra preparation and hearing time. Always seek an initial consultation to discuss your situation, explore costs, and determine the best course of action.
