HR Tip: Re-engagement following redundancy

HRD & Payroll Solutions continues to bring HR Zone members a range of HR and payroll tips in 2006. A market leader in the provision of HR and Payroll training and nationally recognised professional qualifications, HRD & Payroll Solutions are highly experienced in teaching about common HR and payroll problems. A wide selection of tips, tricks and guidance can be seen below. HR Zone highly recommends that any tips are taken as a starting point for guidance only.

HR Tip: You now treat this man in the same way as anyone else you engage. Nine months ago you ended his employment and made him a redundancy payment and that ended that relationship totally. You do not recover the redundancy pay. You now start again and his continuity of service dates from now.
