my sister has just been told - by phone whilst on holiday - that her post will end in 2 weeks. She is to go in on Monday to find out about redundancy package. She told them 2 weeks ago that she is pregnant. The company that she works for has been shedding staff for ages, and it is not completely out of the blue, however she was recently assured that her post was safe. She has been replaced in her role - they have shuffled someone else in - so the job still technically exists. I think she has a good chance of a wrongful dismissal case - anyone any experience? She is taking a friend who is a lawyer to the meeting with her next week. I am shocked that they can do this - it is a big multi national organisation, a media company. Am grr on her behalf - she very stressed, understandably.
