Statutory notice here is 2 weeks, and it counts as service. If your 3rd work anniversary falls inside them, 3 weeks are owed instead of 2: up to £2,253.00 at the cap.
The first £30,000 of redundancy pay is tax free. With £1,502 of it statutory, an employer could add up to £28,498 of enhanced redundancy pay before any tax is due, though notice pay is always taxed.
Made redundant a year later, at 36 with 3 years counted, it would be 3 weeks: up to £2,253.00 at the cap.
