• recruitment of new employees and redundancies (both voluntary and compulsory), employee turnover, the possibility of moving to reduced hours working or the need for overtime, and changes in retirement policy or early retirement schemes;

• how employees are distributed within the undertaking, for example geographically at different establishments (eg plants, offices, factories, retail outlets, branches), or organisationally within different divisions or units of the undertaking, including a reorganisation of posts within the undertaking, redeployment of employees, or a transfer of posts to different locations; and

• employee training and skill development so as to increase the “employability and adaptability” of affected employees.
