The presumption of redundancy under s.31Q was not rebutted: the factual findings of diminished clerical requirements in the Claims Department together with a decrease in payroll numbers supported a finding of redundancy for the purposes of s.31B(2)(c); the employer failed to prove a lack of correlation with business-wide clerical requirements or that displaced clerks could be absorbed without a diminished need for clerks overall; therefore dismissals were mainly attributable to redundancy and severance payments were payable.
