A TUPE confirmation of proposed measures (to employee representatives) letter is sent to employee representatives to inform them of any proposed measures that may affect employees following a business transfer, as required under the Transfer of Undertakings (Protection of Employment) Regulations 2006 (TUPE).
The TUPE confirmation of proposed measures (to employee representatives) letter typically includes information such as the proposed changes to employment terms and conditions, any proposed redundancies or changes to job roles, and the reasons for the proposed measures. The letter should also outline the process for consultation and the timeframe for making any decisions.
The purpose of the letter is to provide the employee representatives with detailed information about the proposed measures, to enable them to consult with their constituents and provide feedback to the employer. This helps to ensure that the consultation process is conducted in a fair and transparent manner and provides evidence that the employer has complied with its legal obligations under TUPE.

If TUPE is proposed, send this model letter template to employee representatives as confirmation of consultation taking place.
If TUPE is confirmed, send this model template letter to representatives as confirmation that a transfer will take place under the provisions of TUPE.
When a business or part of a business is transferred to a new employer, TUPE requires the employer to inform and consult with affected employees and their representatives about the transfer and any measures that the new employer plans to take in relation to their employment. Certain specified information must be provided to the representatives long enough before the transfer to enable the outgoing employer to consult with them about it.
There is no set timetable for consultation, but the larger the transaction and the more staff affected, the longer the timetable will need to be.
If there is a failure to inform and consult, a complaint can be made to the Employment Tribunal. If successful, the Tribunal can award compensaton up to a maximum of 13 weeks pay per affected employee.
