Q: We have recently restructured and several positions were made redundant. All affected staff were offered redeployment to other positions. One employee refuses to sign their new contract. They claim they are being disadvantaged in terms of pay because other employees who were on a lower salary have been redeployed into roles at the same pay level as this employee. This employee’s pay would actually increase with the redeployment – it seems the objection is to other employees’ pay also increasing. If they refuse to sign their new contract, do they become redundant and are we required to pay them redundancy pay?
