Can my partner ask for redundancy?
|
The company that my partner works for is struggling to find work for all its employies and is laying lads off in 2 week blocks. Some are now o their 3rd lot round of lay off time.. My partner has had 1 lot....i just read that if someone has been laid off for 4 weeks or more they can ask their employer for 13 weeks continuous work or ask for redundancy. But,,does this have to be 4 continuous weeks or could it be 2 lots of 2 weeks. . . a bit confusing i know but i could really do with some advice on this....Many thanks x

Please see the text below taken from Direct Gov. The link below gives much more information on claiming redundancy, as well as whether the lay-off has been done legally, etc. If the link doesn't work (as sometimes they don't appear to) go to www.direct.gov.uk and search for lay off.
Good luck to your partner.
The process for claiming redundancy
You can only use this procedure if your wage depends on you being given work by your employer (for example, you're a piece-rate worker). In this case, 'laid off' means laid off for a whole week without pay and short-time means earning less than half of your weekly wage
You can use the procedure if you're laid off or on short-time for four or more weeks in a row, or for a total of six or more weeks within a 13-week period. The timetable to be followed is strict and it is a good idea to seek advice if you are unsure what to do next. |
