An application by an employee, their representative or trade union may be made to an employment tribunal for a protective award as a result of an employer's failure to consult over a redundancy situation. Statistical data are published quarterly and annually by HM Courts and Tribunals Service on the number of receipts and disposals in redundancy claims where there was an alleged failure to inform and consult.HM Courts and Tribunals Service does not collate information centrally about how many employees are based at relevant establishments wherever such applications are made. To the extent that such information is held, it could only be collated by trawling individual tribunal files manually where the case is still live, or by checking individual judgments on the Public Register where the case is dormant. Accordingly, it could be provided only at disproportionate cost. |
