Lawyers on this matter
The challenge
A manufacturing group needed to reorganise its operations across three countries and reduce headcount at its UK site.

We designed the consultation process, coordinated with local counsel in Germany and the Netherlands, and trained managers to run individual meetings.
The outcome
The restructuring completed on schedule with no employment tribunal claims and no disruption to production.
