Article 6 Transfer of staff
Where a person is employed immediately before 1st October 1998 by the College company his contract of employment shall have effect on and after 1st October 1998 as if originally made between him and the University.
Without prejudice to paragraph (1) above–
all the rights, powers, duties and liabilities of the College company under or in connection with a contract to which that paragraph applies shall by virtue of this paragraph be transferred to the University on 1st October 1998; and
anything done before that date by or in relation to the College company in respect of that contract or the employee shall be deemed on and after that date to have been done by or in relation to the University.
Paragraphs (1) and (2) above are without prejudice to any right of an employee to terminate his contract of employment if the terms and conditions of his employment are changed substantially to his detriment, but such change shall not be taken to have occurred by reason only of the fact that his employer is changed by virtue of this Article.
Where a person–
has, prior to 1st October 1998, entered into a contract of employment with the College company which is to come into effect on or after that date; and
would, if the contract had come into effect before that date, have been an employee to whom the provisions of this Article would have applied,
he shall be treated for the purposes of this Article as if he were such an employee.
