1 week for each year they’ve worked, if they’ve worked continuously for 2 years or more
These are the minimum periods. The contract may specify a longer notice period.

Sounds clear to me? What does your contract say?

For redundancy pay, I think you are entitled to statutory. If your contract doesn't say anything about contractual pay, you won't be entitled to it.
They don't "have to" pay the same amount as your colleagues.

Thanks mate. Read the link. It doesn't go into much detail alas in terms of notice period for non-renewal of the contract, ...

Fixed-term contracts will normally end automatically when they reach the agreed end date. The employer doesn’t have to give any notice.

What more detail do you need?


Redundancy payments are due if you are made redundant.
You should not be treated less favourably for being chosen for redundancy, nor in regards to redundany payments made, compared to a permanent employee doing a similar role (unless different treatment can be objectively justified)

However, the end of a fixed term contract may have nothing to do with redundancy (e.g. you were employed to cover an absent member of permanent staff who is now due to return)

If you can get to a total of 4 years, then your contract may be considered permanent.
