Checklist of important points to consider when receiving and responding to I and C requests.

1. Do you employ less than 50 people? If so, the Information and Consultation of Employees Regulations 2004 (“the Regulations”) do not apply to your organisation. 
2. If the Regulations do not apply to your organisation write to the employees who have submitted the request explaining this. No further action is required. 
3. Has the request been made by at least 10% of employees in the undertaking (subject to a minimum of 15 and a maximum of 2500)? If not, write to those who have made the request explaining that the request is not valid. No further action is required.
