Description
The selection of employees for collective redundancy is made by the employer and must be discussed with the works council. The employer is obliged to supply the works council with all relevant information and notify them in writing on:
- the reasons for the projected redundancies;
- the total number and categories of workers employed;
- the number and categories of workers to be made redundant;
- the criteria proposed for the selection of the workers to be made redundant;
- the amounts and methods for calculating severance pay and other payments to the affected workers.
The projected collective redundancies notified to the competent public authority responsible for employment take effect not earlier than 30 days after the mentioned notification. The competent public authority responsible for employment may request the employer to postpone either collective or individual redundancies for a maximum 30 days, if he/she is able to ensure the continuation of employment for the workers during this extended period.
