In the event of such a transfer, the employment rights of those employed by the seller immediately prior to the transfer are preserved and become the responsibility of the buyer. Dismissal in connection with the transfer gives the employee a right to claim unfair/wrongful dismissal against the transferee.

Prior to the transfer, there are obligations to consult with the appropriate representatives of the employees who may be affected.
