Can anyone advise on this at all, would be much appreciated as have mentioned this to my HR but my boss shot it down. Last year am admin at my work went on mat leave. They were part time. An apprentice was brought in to cover their work and also save money, that apprentice got another job and so was replaced by apprentice number two. Admin returns from mat leave and a month later apprentice no.2 gets another job, they have been gone 2 weeks and we have not yet tried to recruit anyone else as they were covering admins work. This week however admin has been told she is being made redundant due to structural change. No more 'admins' in the team but there will be apprentices as they want 'to help young people'. To me this is replacing admins job with someone else which I thought wasn't allowed? Any help would really be appreciated, admin is a mn-er with two small children and I am absolutely gutted for her and want to fight her corner if there's a corner to fight at all!
