Description
The employee whose employment was terminated on grounds of redundancy (collective dismissal or more general) is entitled to reemployment if within a period of one year from the date of termination of employment the post he/she formerly occupied is made available again. The offered conditions shall be as favourable as those to which employee would have been entitled if the contract had not been terminated.
In case of reemployment, the previous period of employment shall still be taken into consideration in terms of length of service and shall be considered as one continuous employment.
