NI: Law Centre (NI) wins positive settlement for care worker made redundant
Reading time: 1 minute
Law Centre (NI) recently acted for a worker in the Northern Ireland care industry who was made redundant.
The worker alleged that the contract she worked on transferred from her employer to a new provider and issued proceedings for unfair dismissal on grounds of failure to consult under the Transfer of Undertakings (Protection of Employment) Regulations.
The Regulations protect employees when a business changes hands.
The case was settled for £5,000 two months before the hearing, with the respondents denying liability.
