Evening...!
a totally generic question, and not at all linked to anyone close to me...
If a woman is due to go on Maternity leave, next week, for example, but is also up for redundancy, am I right in assuming said woman would be entitled to the folowing:
Company Redundancy Pay (guaranteed to get this)
Bonus payment (guaranteed to get this)
Notice pay (8 weeks full pay for example)
6 wks pay @ 90%
33 wks pay @ £127
The ones that are up for discussion are the SMP, 90% of salary and Notice pay. Would both the SMP payments and Company notice payments be payable, or just one?
The SMP payments are Government payments - so should be paid
The Notice period payments are contractural - so should be paid
The question we are asking is are we (sorry, they) lucky enough to be in a situation where BOTH are paid?
Any advice would be greatly appreciated!
