(e) the person is taken into the employment of an employer who is, at the time they entered that employer’s employment, an associated employer of their previous employer, and for this purpose “associated employer” shall be construed in accordance with section 231 of the Employment Rights Act 1996(1); or

(f) on the termination of the person’s employment with an employer they are taken into the employment of another employer and those employers are governors of a school maintained by a local education authority.
