should my notice be extended?

pitza

Hi, I was given 4 weeks notice of redundancy on the 11/06/15 which makes my termination date the 09/07/15 which in turn gives me another full years service by a margin of a few days and because of this I am entitled to 5 years of redundancy pay ( 7.5 weeks pay for being over 41 years of age) but am I now entitled to 5 weeks notice instead of 4?

No

Service for notice is the day it is given.

Exactly as getmore4less says.


You say you are over 41, but are you 5 years over 41,


you only get the extra half weeks for the actual time over 41

Thanks for your answers , I am 54 .

UPDATE just phoned ACAS , both redundancy and notice are worked out from termination date so I am entitled to 5 weeks notice.

I'm afraid ACAS phone helpline is wrong, yet again. As correctly stated above, notice runs from the day after it is given. If you pass a notice entitlement milestone during that notice period, your notice is not extended.
