People are at the heart of any business and employment issues often represent a very significant element of corporate transactions.
We work closely alongside our corporate team colleagues to provide timely and practical advice on the employment aspects of corporate matters, to limit future risks and ensure a smooth completion.
This includes:
- Due diligence on employment aspects of the deal
- Employment indemnities and warranties
- Executive service agreements and fixed term contracts
- Consultancy agreements
- Settlement agreements
An important aspect of many corporate transactions and outsourcing arrangements is the application of the Transfer of Undertakings (Protection of Employment) Regulations 2006 (TUPE) to the workforce. We regularly advise on the collective consultation process and TUPE obligations pre-transfer, in addition to managing changes to the employment relationship post-transfer.
