Can I be made redundant and replaced by someone doing the same job?

Question

Accepted Answer

If you are made redundant and your employer hires a new person with a different job description, and you couldn’t have done their job, your employer is entitled to hire someone else. However, if the functions are similar to the positions made redundant, your employer is breaching the employment law and you can take them to the Employment Relations Authority.
