Let's cut to the quick. If you have done five years you get five weeks notice pay (which you may have to work) unless your contract says otherwise for notice. Redundancy pay depends on your age and service, plus your contractual conditions.




Beyond that, I am guessing, but a small employer, no other jobs, and tough luck but you were on leave when the decision was made? What do you really think an employment tribunal is worth when you deduct your fees from what you MIGHT win?

Thank you for your honest yet curt reply. In all honesty I don't know what to expect from a POTENTIAL tribunal case. I've never even considered doing anything like this before. But there are some key points mentioned that the employer have failed to recognise when giving redundancies. Please don't think of me as a money grabbing ex employee! If I receive nothing other than my statuary redundancy and the knowledge that this employer has had a slap on the wrist and will follow the correct code of conduct in future I will be happy!

It looks as if you should have had five weeks notice.


How old are you op, because if you are over 41 years of age, an extra half a week is added on to however many years you worked beyond 41,.

30 years old and employment began after 22 years old, so it is still 5 weeks notice I believe

that means you have worked there for around 8 years?

Depends how much after.

Well true but it would be bizzare to say after 22 years if it were 3 years later, why not after 14 years old?
