From ACAS Website:
TUPE does not apply to:
- Transfers by
share take-over because, when a company's shares are sold to new shareholders,
there is no transfer of the business: the same company continues to be the
employer
hence my posting above, the purchase of Servisair by Swissport will not be TUPE. The merger of Servisair into Swissport later should be TUPE
