    Aw Clari - you have had really abominable treatment.  I'm sure you would rather be told up front rather than in this sneaky way.  Just goes to show what kind of people they are and I bet you can't wait to see the back of them.  I am so angry on your behalfimage

    Chin up though - better things are in front of you.  Hugsimage

    Clari, how long have you worked there? are they doing last in first out?

    If you have been there less than a year, then I would go for sexual discrimination. Three men kept on, one female not. .. unless you were last in... in which case they are just cowards for not doing it the proper way.

    I'm like a dog with a bone...sorry all..

    Me thinks Clari is probably the only draughtwoman employed knowing what machinery she has spoken about. Plus if she has been as open at work as she has been on the forum about her injuries ( if she wasn't already working there ) I think I'd go into office tomorrow ask to see management for a chat. She is entitled to support  ( another employee not friend) ask if she is the one going. If yes ask why. Then ask if she has been selected because of gender and history, rather than work standard.imageimage

    Clari,  There is no way they are following redundancy guidelines,  if there are only 3 jobs but 4 of you are currently doing the same job then I'm pretty sure they have to go through a process of interviewing you all for the jobs that are currently available. Sorry if that sounds as clear as mud.  Anyway, I would definitely seek advice, if you do go, go down fighting and take them for all you can.  It will at least tide you over until you get something else.

    Clari - Yviestevie is right - when several social work teams were facing redundancies here a few years ago, County Hall first asked for anyone who wanted voluntary redundancy or early retirement - after than we all had to be interviewed for the jobs that were available.  As four teams were being amalgamated into 3, and there was only one FSW post (my job) in each team, four of us were interviewed for the 3 posts.

    I'm sure that's how it should be done.  

    You've probably looked at this, but just in case https://www.gov.uk/staff-redundant/overview
