This paragraph applies where rights and liabilities under a contract of employment are transferred by a transfer scheme.

Anything done by or in relation to the transferor in respect of the employee before the day of the transfer shall be treated on and after that day as done by or in relation to the transferee.

For the purposes of the M1Employment Rights Act 1996, the employee’s period of employment with the transferor shall count as a period of employment with the transferee, and the change of employment shall not break the continuity of the period of employment.
