Transfer of Undertaking - Information and Privacy Aspects
Recently the Dutch Supreme Court rendered a judgment addressing
the scope of the obligation to provide employees with information
in the event of a transfer of undertaking. On the basis of this
judgment, the conclusion must be that this is a far-reaching
obligation. In this article the authors will discuss the right of
employees to information in the event of transfer of undertaking,
in the situation where a works council has been established within
the undertaking and in the situation where there is no works
council. The rights of employees to privacy, which are often
neglected, in the event of a transfer of undertaking will also be
discussed in this
article.
