Employment/Legal advice please.

I'm bumping this for some advice, if anyone is able to help please.

I have been with a large North West firm for 37 years. Four of us do my job or a similar one, and we are going through a reorganisation. The four of us are going for three jobs in the new structure. I have 20 years more experience than the closest of my rivals, and earn £10k more than them. In normal circumstances I would be confident of securing a post.

However, I was recently asked by our Finance Department to carry out some work. To help me with this, they sent me a confidential costing model. Buried deep within the model were the words "Headcount Reduction", with my name (and about 20 others) alongside.

I get the distinct impression I am being set up here, and might be unemployed after the process. Is there anything I can do?

After 37 years...I'd take it.
