Redundancy question

[Tony_T]

Hi all have a question about redundancy and notice pay. Administrators have come in and made everyone redundant, told not to come back. I understand you will be covered by the government for statutory redundancy pay, but will you also get the statutory redundancy notice pay? (1 week per year worked up to 12 weeks). Thanks

Sorry to hear that, not an expert but a quick look at ACAS:

If your employer is insolvent
If your employer is insolvent, you can apply for redundancy pay from the government's Redundancy Payments Service (RPS).

Find out about your rights if your employer is insolvent on GOV.UK
https://www.gov.uk/your-rights-if-your-employer-is...

If your employer is no longer trading but has not registered as insolvent, you might be able to either:

make a claim to an employment tribunal
contact the Redundancy Payment Service if your employer registers as insolvent later
To talk through your options, you can contact the Acas helpline. https://www.acas.org.uk/contact

Thanks for the reply, it’s for my sister and luckily she saw it coming and already has another job offer so it’s not too bad a situation. Just couldn’t work out the entitlement to notice period pay bit.

Slightly related question.


If you get a months pay in lieu of notice, is that month taken into account when calculating accrued holiday pay?
