Hi all!
I was just wondering if someone could give me some advice as I can’t get in touch with CAB.
Employer insists they are right and I am wrong...
So...received notice of redundancy yesterday and the redundancy amount offered seemed a bit lower than I had calculated.
I worked prior to furlough in March - 20 hrs per week.
We were asked to sign a new contract during furlough to reduce our hours to 18 hrs per week effective 27th July.
I’ve not been at work since March when I was furloughed.
Work is saying they are only Paying my redundancy based on my ‘new contracted hours of 18 hrs’
I read that redundancy has to be based on earnings for the 12 weeks prior to furlough, ergo 20 hours a week.
They are adamant they only have to pay me for the 18 hours as I signed a new contract even though I’ve not worked those hours at all as I’ve been on furlough
I know it’s not a massive difference but it’s the principle if I’m right...
TIA x
