What else you might like to know about TUPE Advice

If your business has inherited a workforce through the purchase of another enterprise, a legal service provider is well placed to advise on your legal obligations towards those employees. Here is some basic guidance to inform your choice of legal expert.

What is TUPE?

TUPE is the commonly abbreviated term for the Transfer of Undertakings (Protection of Employment). TUPE is in place to protect employee rights when the business, company or service they work for is taken over and a new employer is in place.

What is the point of TUPE?

TUPE is designed to safeguard employee rights and ensure that they are not penalised for changes beyond their control. TUPE helps to ensure that the day-to-day work of employees continues as normal when the control of an organisation changes hands.

How can legal advice help during TUPE?

TUPE is one of the many complex issues facing a business during a takeover and it is important that an enterprise complies with all legislation relating to staff. If you find that your business is in the position of needing to employ TUPE – either because you are subject to a takeover or buyout or because you are taking over another company – a legal expert can talk you through the process step-by-step and provide the necessary advice to keep you on the right side of the law.

How should I choose the best legal service provider?

TUPE is a matter that demands extensive business legal knowledge. You should carefully consider your choice of legal service providers based not only on price, but also their track record and ability to act in your best interests. You may also wish to take into consideration factors such as location and the size of a firm into account before making your decision.

  • A very good site. It brought up several different quotes for my service which I was able to compare and I'm very satisfied with the provider I've chosen.

    Judith G

  • The site was well laid out and everything was easy to understand. Through The Law Superstore I found a great solicitor who has expert knowledge about the field I needed. I did look at other sites in my search for a solicitor, but The Law Superstore was the only site that didn't want payment upfront.

  • The website was really really good, I found it very easy to use and find the service I needed. It has been designed to look extremely professional and I really think it is a fantastic idea. I’ve actually got the website saved so if I do have the need for a legal service provider in the future I know where to go.

  • It’s a really useful tool for finding a solicitor; I thought that the website was really well designed, clear and easy to use. I had no issues finding the service I required and liked the fact all the results were displayed in a comparison table, I can see that you have a wide range of firms on your panel.
