Decision details

Consideration was given to the report of the Head of Human Resources and Organisational Development.

RESOLVED

For the reasons set out in the report: -

1.      That Cabinet supports the decision of the Chief Executive to release the employees whose roles are listed 1 to 34 in Appendix A of the report under the arrangements agreed in relation to voluntary severance provisions for employees in the Council. 

2.      That Cabinet notes the details of the employees who are listed as 34 to 41 in Appendix A of the report. 

3.      That it be noted that, due to an urgent need for the release two of these employees – one of whom (34) has volunteered for redundancy whilst the other employee’s compulsory notice period was due to end (35), the Executive Member for Procurement, Assets and Shared Services has agreed these under the terms of his delegated powers. 

4.      That it be noted that redeployment is currently being sought for the employees listed as 36 to 41, however they will shortly have completed their redeployment period and if the search proves unsuccessful, they may become compulsorily redundant.  As such they would receive payments under the arrangements agreed in relation to severance provisions for employees.
