TUPE RESTRICTIONS IN ADMINISTRATIONS

摘要

When any business enters into administration, the primary aim has to be to preserve the most value for the creditors. Wherever possible this will be achieved by finding a buyer for the business as a going concern. Meanwhile, the provisions of the Transfer of Undertakings (Protection of Employment) Regulations 2006 (TUPE) are aimed at protecting the rights of employees where the business in which they are employed changes hands. These two objectives do not always sit easily with each other.
