Our community would like to get rid of our cleaner, but have been informed it would cost us a packet to sack her, because unless we can prove she's been caught red-handed stabbing the president, or some such misdemeanor, she has "rights" and will take us to court for unfair dismissal.
So, can we decide we no longer need a cleaner, make her redundant rather than fire her, and just pay her a statutory amount in line with the length of her service? And if so, how long before we can "realise" that we do after all need a cleaner, and hire a new one?
(and before anyone asks the obvious, I don't know why we stupidly employed her on a contract rather than as an autonomo in the first place - I think perhaps she was sleeping with the administrator
).
