Shall I sue the employer that made me redundant only weeks after a temp I trained was given permanent contract?
My employer has just made me and about a third of staff redundant. The need for redundancies was announced only two weeks after a temp I had trained for my old position was given a permanent contract. Can you make new hires and two weeks later tell your staff they will be made redundant?

It's not clear to me whether the person ehtobel2 trained was given ehtobel2's latest job or his/ her previous job role. It's also not clear whether ehtobel2 is being made redundant.
