2012/13: Clarification of “closure of section” in relation to collective redundancy (PT)
An employee of a multinational group that experienced a downturn and carried out a collective redundancy, challenged the lawfulness of his redundancy. He claimed the grounds used by the employer were false because the section in which he used to work had not been closed down. The Supreme Court found the redundancy to have been lawful.
