TUPE refers to the Transfer of Undertakings (Protection of Employment) Regulations 2006.
These regulations apply to businesses of all sizes and protect employees’ rights when the business or service they work for transfers to a new business.
The TUPE regulations can apply when a company is sold, activities are outsourced, brought in-house, transferred or a contract for services is moved from one provider to another.
TUPE is a specialist area of law and a business must comply with these regulations. It is therefore essential that advice is sought an early stage, when the transfer is still only a proposal, before any further action is taken.
How our employment law and HR solicitors can help
We work closely with our specialist corporate team to ensure that all aspects of a commercial transaction are completed in a consistent, joined-up and efficient way, rather than having to outsource any element of the legal work to another legal provider.
TUPE can often be complex, however we specialise in making this process as clear and simple as possible. We have vast experience of handling TUPE transfers and can support you from both a commercial and employment law perspective.
As well as providing pragmatic advice throughout the transaction and drafting the necessary correspondence to ensure employees are properly informed and consulted with about the TUPE process, our experienced HR advisers can also provide on-site support during consultation meetings with employees.
