It wasn't actually my husband affected, I did state it was two colleagues of his that were made redundant at the same time as my husband. They do not have jobs but just wondered where they stood. Should it happen to my husband I wanted to know what was what. He is hopefully expecting an offer on a temporary post which may lead to a permanent position.

Ah ok, I assumed your husband was one of the two, obviously makes no difference on the legal position.
So if the two do not have other jobs to go to, I think it would be very difficult for them to argue that they are not being unreasonable in agreeing to stay at their jobs. Perhaps, if they have lined up emigration to Australia that might work, I struggle to think of anything else. In this case, as I have said, the company cannot stop the actual redundancy, but they most definitely can stop the statutory redundancy payment. In respect to your husband, has he lined up his temporary job elsewhere or within his current company? I think if he has agreed to take a job elsewhere, whether temporary or permanent (considering most people can be removed at any time within the first two years), it would be reasonable for him to decline getting his job back if he so wished. He might however have to fight. But I think he would win. |

His job is out of the company. They may not even request he stays we just wondered where we stood with it all if they did, it’s all very stressful. Thanks

You are in the union, not the company. The company doesn’t have to recognise the union but they cannot stop you being in one or stop the union representing you in any legal case.

Have a look at the GMB. Most Unions require a period of membership before they represent you. That’s rightly so given most of us pay into their services for whole careers but never use them.

In a legal nutshell this is where he stands. Assuming he has a redundancy notice letter, it is irreversible without his agreement. If he is offered a job during his notice period he cannot turn it down unreasonably (it is irrelevant whether it is a “reasonable” job offer, the ball is out of their court now). Having another job to go to, whether permanent or temporary, would be a very strong and “reasonable” reason to decline. All jobs are effectively temporary for the first two years.
