  • Outsourcing, including the application of TUPE to service provision changes;
  • Identifying if TUPE applies to a transaction and, if it does, those employees whose employment will transfer, the effect on their terms and conditions of employment, their right to object, information and consultation obligations and the ability to change terms and conditions of employment post transfer;
  • The application of TUPE to insolvent companies; and
  • Avoiding unfair dismissal claims.
