Reasons for unfair dismissal

Redundancy

On our main unfair dismissal page you will see the broad outline of circumstances where an employer may or may not be criticised for dismissing an employee.

Here we discuss "redundancy" which is considered in certain circumstances an acceptable reason for dismissing an employee.

Unfair dismissal - Redundancy:

The employer must be fair and reasonable in selecting who is to be chosen for redundancy.

One of the most commonly used methods is "last in - first out" which is generally regarded as being fair.

An employer cannot select an employee for redundancy if their reasons for doing so relate to any of the unfair dismissal exceptions discussed on our main page ie: pregnancy, discrimination etc.

If you feel that you have been unfairly selected for redundancy you may be entitled to compensation.
