Redundancy - Company in Liquidation.

rainbowbright_2

Hi there, this is a bit complicated so i will try a be brief!!

I have been made redundant today after 9 years working for a building contractor. The company was originally a partnershipwhen i started then became a Limited company in 2004, to which i became the company secretary. In 2006, i then became a director with a 10% share. Am i entitled to redundancy / notice / holiday pay (i've had no hols this year) and last weeks wages with being a director? Will this go back until the partnership or from 2004?

Also, one of the other directors is now talking of starting up his own company and would like to employ myself and a few of our lads. Can he do this and can i work for him? Would this affect my redundancy / notice?

Thanks!!

Yes rianbowbright you are entitled to redundancy.As the company is in liquidation you claim off the goverment .This has just happened to us as our small business went into liquidation.Our insolvency practitioner sent us all the forms (rt3 if i remember correctly)We recieved our payments very quickly.:j
