If the company knows that they intend to make 100 or more employees redundant then they are required by law to give a 90-day period of consultation.
Sounds a bit sh*tty tho as the employees who re-apply for their jobs could well find themselves in the situation where their service starts from scratch (i.e. no years service), which entitles the company to then make them redundant again on minimum terms, and the such like.
There may well be other terms in their contracts of employment which may well have changed from what they expected or had previously also.
It would also be worth looking into the reasons for the redundancy - as if they can re-apply for their jobs then some roles will hardly be "redundant" and I thought employment law was there to prevent this situation
