21/22 threshold for redundancy pay

MissBailey

Hi,

I've just been made redundant and I'm looking for clarification on the age difference aspect.

I started in April 08 when I was 21. I turned 22 in the June and I've just been made redundant so I've been there five years aged 22+ but was 21 when I started. How is the payout regarding age difference determined? My HR department says I'm entitled to 4.5 weeks pay but I just want to make sure I'm getting everything I'm entitled to.

Many thanks in advance for any reponses :-)

Use you age now, number of years employed and your gross pay.
