TUPE can feel complex—but if you manage cleaners, concierges, gardeners, or any on-site staff, you need to know how it works. This course breaks down the Transfer of Undertakings (Protection of Employment) Regulations in plain English, with practical examples tailored to residential block management.

You’ll learn what triggers TUPE, what it means for your clients and contractors, and how to handle contract changes without getting caught out. This isn’t a legal deep dive—it’s a clear, manager-focused guide to help you spot the risks, ask the right questions, and protect yourself and your clients from costly mistakes.
