A company restructure or rename doesn't let your employer shorten your contractual notice period without your agreement. What matters is whether you were paid less notice than your contract promised. If you were, you can claim the shortfall as a breach of contract.

If your job transfers to a new employer under TUPE, you keep the same rights and protections you had before, and being dismissed just because of the transfer is automatically unfair dismissal.
2025
Being told you're redundant because your employer is insolvent doesn't always mean that's the real story. Your job might have already moved to a different, connected company without anyone telling you. When that happens, that new company carries the legal responsibility for what you're owed, including your redundancy pay, notice pay, and holiday pay. Find out who really runs your old job before you go anywhere near a government claims form.

If your employer becomes insolvent, a new company started by the same directors doesn't automatically inherit your job or your claim, and you can usually still claim unpaid wages, notice pay, and redundancy pay from the government's Redundancy Payments Service.

If your employer disciplines or dismisses you without a proper process, and the timing lines up with a pregnancy or maternity leave, tribunals will take that timing seriously and can award the maximum penalty for it.
Your employer is being sold, or your contract outsourced. TUPE protects your job, pay, and continuity of service through the change, whatever your length of service.
