TUPE SOLICITORS

Transfer Of Undertakings (TUPE) Lawyers

At Jamieson Law, we specialise in guiding businesses through the complexities of TUPE — the Transfer of Undertakings (Protection of Employment) Regulations. This set of rules is crucial for protecting employees’ terms and conditions when a business or part of it is transferred to a new employer, such as during mergers, acquisitions or outsourcing. 

What is TUPE? 

TUPE regulations are designed to protect employees when the organisation they work for changes hands. They ensure that employees’ rights are preserved, and they continue to work under the same conditions with the new employer. 

  • Expert guidance: Navigating the intricacies of TUPE can be challenging. Our experienced team provides clear, practical advice tailored to your specific circumstances. We help you understand your obligations and how to fulfill them, ensuring a smooth and compliant transition. 
  • Strategic negotiation: Whether you’re buying or selling a business, TUPE implications can significantly influence the deal. We assist in negotiating terms that respect employees’ rights while aligning with your strategic objectives. 
  • Comprehensive support: From initial assessments to post-transfer integration, we manage all aspects of TUPE compliance. This includes communicating with employees, drafting required legal notices, and liaising with trade unions or employee representatives as needed.

 

The Jamieson Law team work to empower you to make informed business decisions. With Jamieson Law, you gain a partner who stands by you, demystifying legal jargon and turning complex regulations into actionable steps.

Employee handbooks outline how things are done in the workplace. They typically cover important policies such as health and safety, holidays, sick leave, grievance and disciplinary procedures, equality, various types of leave, benefits, working hours, and more. They act as a one stop shop for your employees to find information and understand how your business operates.

Your employment contracts start right from the moment you issue an offer letter but it doesn’t stop there. Your employment contract should set out the key terms of employment for your new member of staff and should sign post them to your policies and handbook for more detailed insights. These contracts set the tone for your engagement and should reflect your business ethics and tone of voice.

If you don't have an internal HR team, outsourcing HR support is an excellent option for managing complex situations. Dismissals or redundancy processes are often emotionally charged and there is strict legislation governing what is and isn’t acceptable. Engaging with a legal partner like Jamieson Law alleviates much of the administrative burden, ensuring tasks are completed correctly and fairly.

TUPE or The Transfer of Undertakings (Protection of Employment) Regulations, protects employees' terms and conditions when a business or service provision is transferred to a new employer. This is often required in a business sale or merger and needs careful consideration and negotiation with the buyer.

An organisational restructure can impact everyone, departments or individuals in a business. Often the process aims to enhance company operations, add or remove resources to respond to changes in the market or economy, and sometimes to reduce costs ahead of a business event. This can be a challenging time where insightful legal support can create peace of mind that the process is fair and evenly handled.
