We are a contract valeting comopmany to the motor trade, supplying and managing self employed sub contractor valeters to motor dealerships.
One of our customers is extremely dissatisfied with their existing office/showroom cleaning company and in particular the cleaner that they have on site.
They have asked us to take over this contract. However, what are the TUPE implication of this? My main issues are:
1. Is the current cleaner protected under TUPE even though my customer does not want her cleaning for them?
2. We operate our business on a self employed sub contractor model. If we decide to take the cleaner on, what happens if she doesn't want to work on these terms?
3. I have existing valeters on site who could easily work an extra couple of hours to do this job. Is this a good enough reason for my customer to terminate the contract with the cleaning company by way of a cost saving by giving it to someone who is already on site doing something else?
PLEASE HELP!!!
