Navigating the complexities of removing a director who is also an employee
In corporate governance, the process of removing a director is rarely straightforward - especially when that director is also an employee. The legal complexities span company law, employment law, and contractual obligations, requiring a carefully structured approach to ensure compliance and mitigate risks.
In the latest episode of the Cox Yeats podcast, legal experts Randhir Naicker, Benjamin Meadows, Jason Goodison, and Sunil Hansjee unpack the key legal and procedural considerations when removing a director. They explore:
- The difference between removing a director from the board and terminating their employment
- The legal framework that governs shareholder and board-initiated removals
- How Section 197 of the Labour Relations Act applies when a director’s employment is transferred
- Key risks, best practices, and strategies to ensure a fair and legally sound process
For business leaders, HR professionals, and legal teams, understanding these legal intricacies is crucial for making informed decisions while safeguarding the organisation.
