Technical Short: Protective Awards in Insolvency - what they are and where do they rank

Employment law and insolvency law are uneasy bedfellows, and the notice periods demanded by employment law can be difficult to achieve in formal insolvency appointments. A Protective Award is compensation awarded by an employment tribunal because an employer did not consult with the employees before they were made redundant. In what circumstances could a protective award be made against the insolvent employer and what are the ramifications for the case?

Description

Employment law and insolvency law are uneasy bedfellows, and the notice periods demanded by employment law can be difficult to achieve in formal insolvency appointments.   A Protective Award is compensation awarded by an employment tribunal because an employer did not consult with the employees before they were made redundant. In what circumstances could a protective award be made against the insolvent employer and what are the ramifications for the case?

In this One Hour Series we focus on this particular area of employee claims.  We consider protective awards and the circumstances in which one may be made, how it is calculated and applied, and importantly from an insolvency perspective, where it ranks in the process and why.
