Redundancy Selection Criteria Guidance - August 2026

1. Introduction

Carmarthenshire County Council is committed to providing a stable and secure working environment for its employees. However, there may be times and circumstances where changes in the role and work of Local Authorities, new technology and other organisational changes may necessitate the need for redundancies.

This guidance should be read in conjunction with the Authority’s Redundancy Policy and Restructure Policy and sets out the recommended approach to selecting employees for redundancy should a redundancy situation occur.

This guidance does not form part of employees' terms and conditions of employment and may be subject to change.
