Dear Sir/Madam,
I write following the meeting held on DATE. As we discussed, the organisation may need to make redundancies.
The organisation is considering making NUMBER employees within the [specified team/department/section/location] redundant because REASONS. Unfortunately, your post is one of those at risk of redundancy.
The organisation will now start the consultation process. The purpose of consultation is to:
· discuss and explore ways of avoiding or reducing the number of redundancies and reach agreement if possible
· give you the opportunity to make suggestions and raise any questions you may have
· consider possible suitable alternative employment within the organisation
· seek to agree criteria for selecting staff if redundancies are necessary [or explain the selection process agreed with the [relevant trade union/employee representative body]]
· identify your needs during the process and provide you with any necessary support or assistance
I want to make it clear that no decisions have been taken yet and that no decision on this will be made until the consultation has concluded.
· use A if you will collectively consult with a recognised trade union or members of an existing employee forum
· use B if you will elect employee representatives from the workforce to collectively consult with
· use C if you have no recognised trade union or employee representative body and will individually consult with staff at risk of redundancy
