Hi all, I'm looking for some advice on where I stand if I do, the company I work for is due to be taken over by another organisation as they won the contract when it went to tender, this process as been going on for some time and last week we were told that the current organisation as blocked the new organisation taking over from talking to current employees about anything to do with jobs, contracts etc until the date of the date of the takeover, my concern is I have Autism and ADHD which my current organisation knows about and this is obviously all extremely upsetting and not helping as I'm constantly in a state of worry and it's really effecting my health, my question is with having a disability, is there anything out there law wise or just in general that says my current employer has to allow the new employer to talk to me before the takeover date due to having a disability?

    Hi @feelfree101, welcome to the community :) 

    Sorry to hear you're feeling stressed out by the company takeover. As MW says above, maybe it's a good idea to have a chat to your current employer about how you're feeling and see if they can help you feel more settled. 

    Is there anything in particular you're really worried about with the takeover?
