MyRedundancyRights.co.uk provides free, clear, and confidential guidance on your UK employment rights, statutory redundancy pay, and what to do next. Statutory redundancy figures are updated for the limits applying from 6 April 2026.
Use our statutory redundancy pay calculator to estimate what you are owed based on your age, pay and years of service. For employment ending from 6 April 2026 to 5 April 2027, the weekly pay cap is £751 and the maximum statutory payment is £22,530 in Great Britain; in Northern Ireland the cap is £783 and the maximum is £23,490. Our calculator also estimates notice pay and holiday pay.
Not sure if your redundancy is legal? Our redundancy legality checker asks 8 simple questions and gives you a personalised GREEN, AMBER or RED result with clear next steps based on current UK employment law.
Every UK employee with two or more years of continuous service has the right to statutory redundancy pay, a minimum notice period, and a fair selection process. Your employer must genuinely consult you before making a final decision — they cannot simply announce your redundancy as a done deal.
If fewer than 20 employees are being made redundant, there is no fixed consultation period but it must be meaningful. For 20–99 employees the minimum is 30 days; for 100 or more it is 45 days.
Whether your redundancy seems fair, unfair, or you have been offered a settlement agreement, our personalised action plan walks you through exactly what to do, including free letter templates you can download and send today.
Our employer redundancy hub provides HR managers and business owners with a step-by-step process guide, compliance checker, multi-employee pay calculator, and professionally drafted letter templates to help you carry out redundancies lawfully.
