Business reorganisation is a necessity to remain competitive, manage costs, deliver excellent service and meet the changing demands of the environment in which SME’s operate. Invariably, reorganisations will result in redundancies. Successful change will always require detailed planning and preparation. Poor planning will result in demotivated and disengaged staff and potential tribunal claims.

The challenge is to also ensure that levels of customer service are maintained, if not improved.
