From our vast experience of advising clients on UK employment law, including employees’ redundancy rights,  we have seen a growing trend within some industry sectors for employers to, depending on the expertise of an employee, bring him or her back following redundancy to assist with certain tasks. For example employers may need assistance with various projects or to advise current employees.

Where employers reserve the right to bring an ex-employee back, it is usual for them to cover his or her reasonable expenses, such as travel expenses. The obvious risk here is that this depends on the availability of the ex-employee and it may not be possible for an ex-employee to meet his or her obligation if he or she is employed.

This right is normally embodied in a provision within the employee’s compromise agreement and is something we always advise employees upon wherever relevant.
