Redundancy Ireland
Expert support to ensure you are legally compliant regarding redundancy issues
Redundancy is a complex process that must be handled fairly to avoid legal issues, including claims of unfair dismissal. Employers should explore all alternatives before considering redundancy and must follow strict procedures, focusing on the role, not the individual. There must be a genuine business rationale for the redundancy, such as restructuring, cost-cutting, or the role no longer being required. Selection methods include “First In, First Out” or a fair Selection Matrix based on business needs, not personal reasons. Redundancy cannot be used to target disliked employees, and the role cannot be refilled within 12 months. Proper notice based on service length is required, and failure to follow due process may lead to costly WRC or Labour Court actions.
