Anything that could happen, won't until MORE THAN 4 YEARS TIME. The law on "Transfer of Undertakings (
Protection of Employment) Regulations 1981" would also limit things. Any Franchise agreement would only stipulate what the Franchisee COULD do, not MUST. If they're not needed why should they be employed?
