Transfer of Undertakings: Automatic Unfair Dismissal

Employee claim for automatic unfair dismissal due to a TUPE transfer

In this episode 244 of the podcast I bring you the details of the enhanced protection from dismissal that applies to certain employees under TUPE when there is a transfer of their employment.

This is episode 3 of a mini series covering the key details you need to know about TUPE.

In this episode of the podcast we cover:

• The additional protection from unfair dismissal as a result of a transfer.
• When the automatic unfair dismissal right applies.
• The required length of service to bring a claim for automatic unfair TUPE dismissal.
• The defence to a claim for automatic unfair dismissal under TUPE.
• What economic, technical and organisational reasons have been successful defences.
• When a dismissal is not linked to the TUPE transfer.
