P. 45
REDUNDANCY POLICY
1. Should circumstances arise where redundancy is seen to be a possibility the Company will
ensure it complies with relevant legislation and look where possible to
a. reduce overtime to a workable minimum; and
b. investigate measures, such as short-time working, reduced working week and/or lay
off (without pay), as a means of avoiding redundancies.
2. If redundancies cannot be avoided, consideration may be given to applications for voluntary
redundancy, where appropriate. It may not be possible to accept every application for
voluntary redundancies depending on the requirements of the business. If the selection of
employees for redundancy becomes necessary, any criteria for selection will be discussed
with you at the time where possible. At all times the overriding consideration will be the future
viability of the business and we reserve the right to deviate from this policy where deemed
necessary.
