Meeting the challenge of the recession – Amid a prediction by the CBI that thousands of British jobs may be lost due to the worsening economic outlook, many businesses are looking at cost cutting measures to ensure profit and sustainability. However, many of these changes represent a minefield and getting the process wrong can result in liability for unfair dismissal.
Employment law specialists at Withy King are holding a seminar series in January where they will advise business clients on the options open to them in response to the economic downturn, including changing employment terms, lay-offs and short time working, outsourcing and redundancy. The seminar will concentrate on the practical steps businesses should take to avoid making expensive mistakes.
