A new rule applies to TUPE transfers that take place on or after 1 May.
It used to be the case that a transferor had to give a transferee employee liability information 14 days before the transfer. That information includes the names of transferring employees and details of any disciplinary action taken against them or legal action they have brought.
That 14 day period has been extended to 28 days before transfer. In practice this means more time for the transferee to plan and to take issue with the information they’re being given.
