Employment Relations Act 2000, ss 69CA, 69I, Schedule 1A
Workers in specific industries where jobs are particularly vulnerable to restructuring have special protections against losing their jobs. These workers are considered to be at greater risk of losing their jobs due to their lack of bargaining power and because they are working in sectors that are often sold, contracted or transferred out.
These rules give you the right to transfer over to the new employer on your existing terms and conditions of employment if you will no longer be required to do your work because of the restructure and the new employer will do that same work.
