How to Manage Holiday Requests

To put it plainly, TUPE ensures that when employees transfer to another business, they retain their current terms and conditions. We have worked with many Practices who have merged over the years to ensure that they are complying with the regulations that are dictated by TUPE.
Over the coming weeks we will be looking at what the obligations are for all parties involved and what the TUPE process involves. In this article we will look at what situations TUPE applies and how to determine who is eligible to transfer.
There are two areas where TUPE will apply:
Other examples of changes in service provision could be when a service is delivered in house, such as cleaning, but the organisation decides to go out and tender the service. Or vice versa, an organisation may decide to bring a service in house which they had outsourced in the past. The individuals specifically working on the contract for the organisation may be eligible to be TUPE transferred.
Deciding who is eligible to TUPE transfer can sometimes be a bit of a headache. It is straight forward in the case of business transfers as all employees’ transfer, however when it comes to transfers due to changes in service provision, these can be somewhat more complex. In some cases it can be very clear cut where individuals spend 100% of their time working on the contract, however others may have a spread of duties which aren’t solely focused on the contract. In this scenario it is advisable to get some advice, which is what our team of HR advisers is here for. As part of your membership you can access our advice and support for FREE.
