A non-genuine redundancy occurs when your employer fails to consult you about the redundancy in breach of a modern award or enterprise agreement, or it was reasonable to redeploy you in the circumstances. If you are covered by a modern award or enterprise agreement, there may be a consultation process that your employer is obligated to follow before implementing your redundancy. Generally, you must be informed of the proposed changes, provided information about the changes and their effects, and afforded a reasonable time to respond with ideas or suggestions.
