Managing collective redundancies is one of the most complex and high‑risk HR processes — and meeting your legal obligations is critical.
The HR1 form is a statutory requirement for UK employers proposing to dismiss 20 or more employees within a 90‑day period at a single establishment, and failure to submit it correctly can lead to criminal prosecution, fines, and delays to your consultation process.
Our expert‑developed HR1 resource helps HR teams and employers stay compliant, avoid costly mistakes, and navigate the collective redundancy process with confidence.
In this resource, you will find:
- Form wording and structure
- Supporting guidance for using this form
- Key resources
- Notes
- Future developments
