Hi LawAnswers,
I was made redundant a few weeks ago over the phone effective immediately but no formal documentation or email was ever sent to me directly. An email was sent around to others in the company though notifying them of my redundancy. A couple of weeks later my employer calls saying that they're sorry but the redundancy package was not processed because they decided they didn't want to change the department I was in as part of their restructuring, and that they wanted me to go back and work for them. They also told me my redundancy was only effective from the date it was processed.
This doesn't seem right to me but just thought I would see if this is a normal process in QLD or how I should approach this?
