changing contracts

Any business is likely to develop or restructure its operation over time. These changes can take many forms. The most extreme might involve the selling off or closure of part or even the whole of the business, or the contracting out of part of its operation. At the other end of the spectrum, the company might simply need to make minor amendments to the way in which its employees work.

Whatever form business change might take, it is likely to involve some kind of alteration in the company’s relationship with its workforce, and that may entail changing employment contracts.

Our members can find guidance on making changes to contract in our Employment Guide. Companies that are planning to implement change may find it useful to contact their Association for detailed advice.
