Redundancy Calculation Query

    Hi there,

    Just after finding out I am being made redundant. I am trying to find out how to calculate redundancy and have found the redundancy calculator.

    But my questions is
    I have worked for this company for 3.5 years. For approx. 2 years of this I worked full time 5 days a week on a considerably higher wage than now. But for the last year and a half I worked only 4 days, (my choice) and received approx 380.00 per week. Can anyone tell me aproximately what my redundancy will be. Does the fact that I worked for two years on a higher wage impact the redundancy figure at all or will it be calculated on what I have been receiving in the last year.

    Thanks for all the help.

    I'm currently going through that process. From personal experience i think redundancy payment will be based on your current weekly wage. I assume the 380 is net income & your employer is paying statutory only?
    So you can calculate your redundancy @ approx 7 weeks payment.

    How many weeks/year is statutory?
    Would it be true of most (non corporate) companies that they offer just statutory? Always wondered what the incentive was for a company to offer more than statutory...?

    Well, for voluntary redundancies, they obviously want to entice people to take it up, but I imagine you're talking about just letting people go.

    I guess some amount of good will may be part of it (that could be me being naive though), but also I think that a company might want to give the impression that they are not absolutely broke, but want to streamline a little - therefore sending a more positive message to investors.
