ABOUT THIS EPISODE
"We're making his role redundant... but we're not letting him go.”
Meet "bumping" - where one role disappears, but instead of dismissing that employee, the business moves them into someone else's role and makes that person redundant instead.
On this episode, Elissa breaks down bumping from both sides: the discrimination risks employers face (hello, 9 protected characteristics), and whether employees can challenge a redundancy they suspect was really about preference, not process.
Plus: how to avoid this workplace emergency before it ever reaches a tribunal.
🎧 Listen now - and see how HRoes' unified HR and employment law offering protects you against claims of up to £250k.
