We don't live in a democracy, we live in a corporatocracy, with a bit of oligarchy thrown in for good measure.

The only veneer of democratic process that we have is getting to vote for whichever lib/lab/con puppet of the banks, the corporations and the wealthy establishment we have as our political leaders.

Celgar wrote:What does TUPE mean or stand for if it
TUPE stands for the Transfer of Undertakings (Protection of Employment) Regulations. This is relevant to any redundancy decisions where a business or part of it is transferred from one owner to another.

Both the old and new owners are required to inform and consult staff affected directly or indirectly by the transfer of ownership. Your employment rights are also protected when the business changes hands. The terms and conditions of your employment are maintained when a business, or part of one, is transferred to a new owner.

It does not mean that the new employer cannot make you redundant but it is worth talking to a specialist lawyer to check if your employer is being fair.

Yes clash, but the agreements only last for 12months now and after that they can do what they want and great the workforce like s**t.

They can always do that whether you're covered by TUPE or not. The protections provided by TUPE are not worth the paper they're written on.
