mass redundancy consultations

Mass redundancy consultations are formal discussions between an employer and employees or their representatives when a large number of jobs may be cut. The purpose is to explore ways to reduce job losses, discuss the reasons for redundancies, and consider alternatives. This process aims to ensure fairness, transparency, and that employees are given proper information and options before decisions are made. Employers must follow legal procedures, including consulting for a specific period, and consider employee feedback to minimize adverse effects and comply with employment laws.
