Can an employee prevent a restructuring of a department as a result of a global restructuring?
According to the Redundancy Board, no. In a recent decision involving Apex Group Centralisation Services Ltd (the “Employer”) and one of its long-serving employees, Mrs Roojee, the Redundancy Board sent a clear message: running the business is the employer’s call and the Redundancy Board will not intervene if it is of the view that the restructuring is genuine.
