Under proposed new laws, workers will have a stronger hand, and greater emphasis will be put on employers’ obligations

But if the company is in liquidation what do the people get?

Workers must also be given 30 days’ notice and this time is intended to be used for consultation so that workers, or their representatives, can suggest alternative courses of action.
