Hi, hope someone can clarify my dilemma.
I have been made redundant after 11 years of employment. The company are leaving me on furlough, at home, for the 11 weeks notice period, on full pay .This ends 14th October, i then receive my redundancy pay, and any holiday pay due, and wages for October .
Ive been offered a new job today. My query is, if i start the new job before my notice period ends, will my notice and redundancy pay be affected. .or is there any reason my soon to be former employer could revoke my redundancy pay , or could there be any other problems that anyone is aware of?
Id like to start the new job now, though they have said starting October is not a problem either if thats what i have to do..
Thanks
