Things that could change this figure

  • If your pay varies week to week, the weekly figure used should be your average gross pay over the 12 weeks before you were told about the redundancy. Weeks with no pay are skipped and earlier weeks used instead. Read the guide
  • Your statutory notice period counts towards continuous service. If your notice takes you past a work anniversary or a birthday that moves you into a higher age band, you may be entitled to more than this figure shows. Read the guide
  • This is the statutory minimum. Your contract, a collective agreement or a settlement offer may entitle you to more. Read the guide
