I am not sure that the company can cite absense through genuines sickness as grounds for redundancy. Wait and see what happens, but it might be worth having a chat with an employment lawyer in the meantime just in case.

Its part of a matrix thing they do take absence and other points into consideration.. I know I shouldn't worry and we'll cross the bridge when or if it happens but can't help myself!!

Ang - use this link to work out what redundancy gary would be entitled to:

http://www.direct.gov.uk/en/Diol1/DoItOnline/DG_4017972

Its the statutory amount - some companies have their own schemes, but this is the least Gary will get.

I had a look at the redundancy calculator when they were talking about redundancies here. I don't see how they can say you get a week for every year you've worked at a company when they only pay up to £330 per week!

I'm keeping everything crossed for you and Gary xxx

Of course you are not a wimp Ang! You are bound to be very worried and upset, and a good cry will do you the world of good.

Hopefully everything will be ok.

Know just what you mean Ang!
