Pilon payments and working notice

Options
Good Morning all,

I am being made redundant today (29th), however last night my boss received a call stating that he and myself have to work an extra 2 weeks. Can someone explain to me where I/We stand on this please?

P.s We also have several emails backing up the 29th leaving date and our redundancy packages clearly state PILON.

Thanks,

    You are working another two weeks. There is no right to be redundant, and redundancy can be withdrawn or amended right up to the last second. You may have an argument for further PILON if the agreement is contractual, but that would be rare - PILON most commonly isn't contractual, and as the name implies, it only gets paid if the required notice isn't given.
