Leads to convert in employment contracts

How to create outlook signature

Oona: So, in regards to contract changes I've  been, say as an employee, I've been informed by   my employer that they want to change my contract,  however I've seen perhaps maybe a few other people   made redundant in my workplace. I can see from  an employee's point of view that this might   be a bit of a red flag, so what what advice  would you give employees in this situation? John Palmer: Okay, so when a redundancy situation  is coming up there are lots of things going on   that are not necessarily just to do with making  redundancies that mean their business becomes   viable. It could be that an employer is  looking to restructure or reshape things   in other ways as well. That does mean sometimes  that perhaps they're not going to think necessary   that somebody's role is unnecessary but that they  might want to look and see if they can find a way   to agree to change that role. Now when it comes to  varying a contract of employment there are really   some very good practice ways that employers should  go about doing that and the main one is to talk   to you and seek agreement to make that change,  and that might be collectively with your trade   union or some other recognised bargaining group  or it might be with yourselves as individuals.   That is the best practice way however there are  more extreme options if an employer is then saying   that, I need to make changes and I can't do them  because you're not agreeing to them at the moment.   Now hopefully negotiation a bit of agreement a  bit of what compromise on both sides will help   resolve that and Acas can get involved if you or  your employer wants help at that point as well,   but ultimately if your employer decides to there  is some sort of option out there that's called   imposing a change, and what that essentially  does is it's saying that your current contract   of employment is going to be ended you're going to  be given notice and dismissed from that contract   of employment and immediately rehired under  these new terms and conditions. There are   all sorts of options that can get a little bit  complicated to explain on a video and the best   thing to do if you're in that situation and it's  concerning you is to contact the Acas helpline.
