Ask a solicitor: My job is changing – and I'm worried what is coming

A genuine redundancy must be based on the role being eliminated, not the person, writes rural solicitor Karen Walsh

Your employer cannot make substantial changes to your terms of employment without your agreement. While day-to-day adjustments do happen in workplaces, significant changes to hours, duties or rosters must be discussed with you first.

Dear Karen, 

I have worked for the same agri-business company for almost 12 years. Over the past few months, my role has changed a lot without any discussion.
