This content is unique to LexisNexis

Commentary

McMullen on Business Transfers and Employee Rights deals with all types of employment problems on change of employer, thus, not just transfer of undertakings under TUPE, but also with employee rights on share sale takeovers and on changes of employer not involving a transfer of an undertaking where continuity may be preserved by the Employment Rights Act 1996. We have also been able to track other international developments, in a wide range of jurisdictions, thanks to the continuing kindness of contributors to Chapter 16.
