Restructure & Redundancy

Following correct process for restructure is very important!

Of all of the areas of HR, the restructure and redundancy process is the one that presents the highest potential risk for employers.

Following the correct process for communications and being sure that your documentation is both timely and correct is extremely important.

In order to make positions redundant, you must first conduct a restructure process - which involves consultation & feedback from all those concerned. Where teams are to be downsized, more steps must be conducted and ideally a company policy should be in place.

If you are feeling unsure about the path ahead and you feel restructuring may be an option for you to explore, we recommend that you first contact us for a consultation with one of our consultants to ensure you are clear on the steps forward.

Of course, not all restructures are downsize oriented. Increasing your head count can also involve restructuring on positions (and indeed can involve redundant positions.

These documents will help you in remaining compliant through every step.
