Bringing calm, clarity and compliance to a sensitive TUPE transfer

Wexco Cargo GSSA is a UK-based air cargo agent, representing airlines across the world. It manages sales, operations and customer relationships, supporting freight forwarders with logistics co-ordination. Based in London, it has a team of almost 20 staff.

Wexco currently uses a HR subscription service for its HR requirements, however when it needed expert 1:1 advice and guidance for a specific TUPE situation it approached Strategi Solutions.

Strategi supported Wexco with a TUPE (Transfer of Undertakings (Protection of Employment)) project, which can often be a complex and unsettling situation. Our partnership approach made the process easy to follow for everyone involved and ensured Wexco staff had the confidence to carry out what was needed.

Our work included drafting letters, templates, attending meetings and documenting meeting minutes, tailored to match the requirements of the specific situation and following the specific approach required in a TUPE project.

“People thanked me personally for the way the TUPE transfer was managed. They felt reassured through what is an unsettling time. We don’t use templates in these situations, we take a 1:1 guided approach to ensure the best outcome. And we know we have done our job well when we get great feedback like that.”

 

Rob Fisher, CEO, Strategi Solutions

It’s really clear the project went well, all the people involved from all parties gave positive feedback on how the project had been delivered. Through our expert advice and guidance we helped the business de-risk the situation, ensuring they remained legally compliant, communicated with all parties clearly, and avoided any integration issues.

A TUPE scenario always brings elements of trepidation. Yet the service, detail and adaptability offered by Strategi – through Rob Fisher and his team – was exemplary and gave individuals (who had begun the process with apprehension) total clarity and confidence, whilst reassuring each employee further guidance and support was readily available.

This contributed to a seamless integration. My sincere thanks to Strategi for guiding all parties through this process successfully with professionalism, diligence and compassion. This unique combination is rare to find.”
