TUPE (Transfer of Undertakings Protection of Employment)

2 stories · 2 councils

Councils are making decisions on service transfers and procurements, though recent reports do not explicitly mention TUPE (Transfer of Undertakings Protection of Employment) discussions.

Richmond upon Thames Council's Environment, Sustainability, Culture and Sports Committee decided in September 2026 that Greenwich Leisure Limited (GLL) will manage the council's sports centres, a move aimed at improving financial sustainability and resident access. This decision involves the transfer of services previously managed directly by the council, which are forecast to require a £397,000 subsidy in 2026/27.

Separately, Haringey Council's Cabinet approved a procurement process for adult social care home care and reablement services in March 2026. This aims to sustain and strengthen existing services while addressing current pressures, with a re-procurement needed to update the model for market conditions.

While these decisions concern the transfer or procurement of services, situations where TUPE (Transfer of Undertakings Protection of Employment) regulations typically apply to protect employees' rights, the supplied council reports do not explicitly detail discussions or decisions regarding TUPE.
