The UK's transfer of undertakings legislation - TUPE - is of immense practical, commercial, and financial significance to employers and employees in both the public and private sectors, yet it is also one of the most notoriously complex and unpredictable areas of employment law. This specialist reference text offers a concise yet comprehensive examination of all aspects of TUPE, covering issues such as when the regulations apply, the legal effects of a transfer, the information and consultation requirements of the legislation, and claims arising from transfer related dismissals.
This third edition, updated to reflect the developments in this area since the previous edition in 2016, addresses decisions such as Govaerts and McTear on the impact on employees of the division of the undertaking in or services on which they work, Astrea on the validity of allegedly improper beneficial changes agreed pre transfer, Nicholls on the application of TUPE to public sector transfers, the application of TUPE to workers in Dewhurst, and many others.
New to this Edition:
- Considers the impact of EU withdrawal legislation to the extent relevant to TUPE
- Analyses of the Govaerts and McTear decisions on the split of functions on a transfer
- Examines the Xerox case on transfer of a business overseas

"Quite simply, it reads well. The discussion of the case law is of a particularly high standard ... this is an excellent work, of which the author should be proud, and which is easy to recommend to those dealing with the subject." -Professor Ian Smith, New Law Journal, 4 August 2006
"It is without doubt the best analysis of either the new TUPE regulations or the pre-existing law that the reviewer has read ... this timely and accessible work is worth appreciably more than it costs to buy." - Geoffrey Mead, Employment Law Journal, September 2006
