What are my rights if Im made redundant after whistleblowing?

A Sorted Team Answered by

If you've made a protected disclosure, you have rights that protect you from being dismissed unfairly due to your whistleblowing. Redundancy should not be used as a cover for unfair dismissal if you have reported misconduct or wrongdoing. It's important to gather any evidence that links your redundancy to your whistleblowing. If you believe your redundancy was unfair, consider seeking advice from a solicitor who specialises in employment law or check the official guidance on gov.uk for more information on your rights.
