Will I have a chance to discuss being at risk of redundancy?
Answer
Any individual employee at risk of dismissal under the Redundancy Policy will be invited to at least one individual consultation meeting prior to their potential dismissal being confirmed. The purpose of this meeting will be to discuss the reasons for the proposed changes, any selection process, potential redeployment opportunities and other relevant information. Further meetings during the consultation period will be held if necessary. Any concerns or queries raised by the employee during the consultation period will be addressed and responded to in a timely manner (including ones that involve the application of any selection criteria). During the consultation meetings, the employee may be accompanied by a work colleague or a recognised trade union representative.
