      This book analyses corporate rescue laws, processes and policies prescribed in corporate insolvency or bankruptcy laws, and employment laws of the United Kingdom and the United States, with a particular focus on how extant employee rights are treated when a debtor employer initiates corporate insolvency proceedings.

      This book analyses corporate rescue laws, processes and policies prescribed in

      corporate insolvency or bankruptcy laws, and employment laws of the UK and

      the US, with a particular focus on how extant employee rights are treated when

      a debtor employer initiates corporate insolvency proceedings.

       

      The commencement of formal insolvency proceedings by an employer affects

      employees’ rights and interests. Employment laws seek to protect employees’ rights

      and interests, while insolvency laws seek to promote corporate rescue, which may

      entail workforce changes. Consequently, this creates a tension between whose

      interest insolvency law should give primacy of protection. The book analyses how

      corporate rescue processes such as administration, pre-pack business sales, company

      voluntary arrangements, receivership and liquidation impact employee rights

      and protection during corporate rescue proceedings in both jurisdictions. It goes

      on to address how the federal system of government in the US and the diffusion

      of power between federal and state law jurisdictions impact a uniform code of employee

      protection during Chapter 11 bankruptcy reorganisation proceedings. The

      book considers how an interpretative approach to law (Dworkin’s Interpretative

      Theory of Law) may be used to balance both employee protection and corporate

      rescue laws during corporate insolvency in the UK and the US.

       

      Of interest to academics, students and employment law practitioners, this

      book examines the tension between corporate rescue laws and employment protection

      laws during corporate insolvency in the US and the UK and how this

      tension may be remedied or balanced.
