TUPE, Mobilisation and Demobilisation Support
Won a new contract and inherited staff? Or losing one and TUPE'ing people out?
As your business grows, you might bid for and win a contract that comes with existing staff attached - or you might lose one and have to transfer your own people out to someone else. Either way, that's TUPE.
TUPE (the Transfer of Undertakings, Protection of Employment Regulations) is one of the most complex and high-risk — areas of employment law. It exists to protect employees when a contract changes hands, and it comes with strict obligations on both the outgoing and incoming employer: information and consultation, due diligence, terms and conditions protection, and tight timescales that don't leave much room for error.
Get it wrong and you're looking at tribunal claims, reputational damage, and a mobilisation that starts on the wrong foot with a workforce that doesn't trust you yet.
Get in touch to talk through your transfer.
TUPE (Transfer of Undertakings Protection of Employment) protects employees’ rights when a business or contract changes hands.
It’s more than a legal process, it’s about maintaining trust, safeguarding livelihoods, and keeping your team motivated and supported through change.
I provide dedicated, hands-on HR support for every stage of TUPE and organisational change, from contract mobilisation and demobilisation to transition and transformation.
