Before consultation begins…

When an organisation is considering 20 or more redundancies, there can be a lot to think about before the first consultation meeting ever takes place.

The business rationale, who may be affected, consultation timescales, employee representation, communications, documentation and the roles of managers and decision-makers all need careful consideration.

And because consultation needs to be genuine and meaningful, good preparation isn't about deciding the outcome in advance. It's about creating a clear, well-managed process that gives employees and their representatives a real opportunity to understand, question and influence the proposals.

Use the checklist to help you:

Sense-check your starting point
Identify what you've already considered and where there may still be gaps.

Ask the right questions early
Think through some of the key issues before they become problems later in the process.

Bring your planning together
Get a clearer picture of the people, information and activities you'll need to coordinate.

Then I'd finish that section with one little line:

It won't give you all the answers, but it will help you work out which questions you need to be asking.
