Query on Redundancy and PILON

Options
Hello,

I have a query whether the Redundancy Package does include possible PILON or they are two separate issues. 
So in my case. I have been offered VR with a so called "enhanced voluntary package", which I applied for. If accepted I will get served notice on 6th January and contractually it is 3 months. So that is 5th April. So my query is that in case of a PILON, would I get the three months pay plus the Redundancy Package at the end of the notice period? 
Thanks in advance

    Why would you get paid in lieu of notice if you're actually working your notice?

    Either you get informed on 6/1 and you go on that date and receive PILON and redundancy in the next payroll run or you work through the notice getting your normal pay and then get redundancy on 5 April and it gets paid in the next payroll run.
  • Thank you. My query was whether they are two separate payments. One the PILON which include the 3 months notice and the other being the redundancy package. I get the PILON then of course I won’t be working the notice as I’ll get paid in one go for them. Hope it makes sense. 
  • I’m in the same situation and my PILON plus severance pay are being paid in one go 21 days after my end date. Has your employer not stated when they will be paid?

    Not yet. The process is still ongoing and I will know acceptance of the VR and whether they will offer me PILON soon.
