This would include any issues associated with financial support offered by its owner or by third parties.</p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p><p>It is not uncommon that an insolvent company has insufficient money to pay their creditors in full - including employees - and that is why there are special arrangements for employees who are made redundant on the insolvency of their employer.
