Excerpt: If your employer has selected you for redundancy you must be given a notice period before your employment ends. The statutory redundancy notice periods are: at least one week’s notice if you have been employed between one month and two years; one week’s notice for each year if employed between two and 12 years; 12 weeks’ notice if employed for 12 years or more. However, you should also check your contract of employment because your employer could have set out longer notice periods.
