Probation / Redundancy

[jimsters]

Hi

I am currently working for my employer for the past 5 years and from the 1st of april, my role within the company will be changing - however i am being put on 6 months probation because of the change in roles and "incase things dont work out" as my employer said.. I have been given my new contract to sign and it does mention that my continious employment began in 2005 but my query is - if I am let go during this 6 month period, am i still entitled to the mandatory redundancy or is this gone until the probationary period is over?

Thanks for any help in advance.

You would still be entitled to redundancy based on your initial start date.

WaterSprite is correct.

What else is in the revised contract?

thanks for your help.

Brendan - nothing else major has changed apart from the job description.
