This is a little complicated. The company I work for has various offices around the country. A number of employees from different offices (including me) have been informed that we are likely to be TUPE’d to another company shortly. All the people involved, except me, previously TUPE’d into our current company from this company. They therefore are being ‘reverse TUPEd’. I am not sure if there are differences in the law between TUPE and reverse TUPE. We have been informed that the company intends to move our jobs to another part of the country. Further, they have said that they are exempt from the TUPE rule about making people redundant within 6 months of the transfer. I am not sure if this is indeed legal. The biggest issue I have, is that this company does not now have an office even remotely close to our current location (it did at the time of the original TUPE). They have said that from the day of the transfer onwards they want us to work from home (until they make us redundant). This does not sound correct to me. Any advice would be welcomed. |
