KNP Logistics Group enters administration

We were sorry to read reports that KNP Logistics Group Ltd has entered administration and ex-members of staff have contacted us following the company’s collapse. We understand 730 jobs have been lost across a number of different sites, including head-office at Kettering, the Isle of Wight, Islip and Luton. FRP Advisory has been appointed as administrator to the logistics company.

Sadly, it is common for administrators make immediate redundancies, without prior warning or any consultation process.

A failure to follow a consultation process could lead to employees being able to claim protective award compensation from an Employment Tribunal of up to 90 days’ pay. Such a claim could be pursued if:

  • 20 or more people were made redundant at the same workplace and;
  • There was no information and consultation process, or it wasn’t carried out correctly prior to making redundancies.

If you’d like to consider taking legal action, contact our employment team confidentially now for more information.

There are strict Tribunal deadlines within which to pursue these claims, so you mustn’t delay if you believe you may be affected.
