Redundancy Entitlement

asil31

Hello,

Just been advised that I and around 40 others are being made redundant next september due to relocation.

I have worked for the compan for 9 years and the companies poicy for redunduncy is;

5-10 complete years service= statuatory number of weeks at normal pay or statutory redundancy pay, whichever is greatest.

I take this to be the statutory amount as £430 according to the Government website as being greater then my weeky wage of £313 - so I should be entitled to the greater amount?

Please can I have your thoughts on this?

Thanks

No, redundancy pay is capped at £430.
As you earn less than this you will get you weekly wage ie £313.


If someone earned say £490 they would only get the capped amount of £430.

Statutory redundancy is a weeks pay CAPPED at £430 so I think they mean they won't cap the pay.

They should really be consulting and looking to prevent the redundacies,

is relocation not an option.

What are they offering for 10+ years there may may be age discrimination issues.


if over 41 this should be 1.5 weeks for each complete year over 41.

Hi,

The package for over 10 years service is;

Statuatory number of weeks at normal pay plus Statutory Redundancy Pay.

There are three locations in the UK which they are moving into one location in Sussex - really not an option for me to relocate.

Thanks
