WRC recommends employer offer barber statutory redundancy after workplace closure

A WRC adjudicator recommended that an employer offer a barber statutory redundancy after the location where she spent most of her working days closed and the employment relationship appeared to have broken down. The recommendation was dated 15 July 2022. The worker objected to a transfer and raised concerns that CCTV cameras were being moved to monitor her. The employer said the transfer followed a business review, denied using CCTV to watch staff and offered work at two locations. The adjudicator said the worker’s belief that cameras moved with her was not conclusive proof.
