ROK Redundancies
Building services firm ROK has announced more redundancies - a further 268 staff in Scotland are to be laid off - after a deal to save part of the business collapsed.
Last week over 700 job cuts were announced - including 69 in East Kilbride.
Who knows whether the workforce saw this coming - and whether there was any prior warning or effective consultation.
If not the workers involved may be able to bring a claim to the employment tribunals - for a protective award.
If successful, a protective award could be worth up to three months pay - worth fighting for if you've just been thrown onto the dole.
So, if you know anyone that works for ROK - tell them to get proper advice before they agree to anything - put forward by the company's administrators.
