Employment Rights Payments Change

Annual changes to the payments for unfair dismissal and redundancies will take effect from 1 February 2011.

Under index-linking, increased limits will apply to:

statutory redundancy payments
the basic and compensatory awards for unfair dismissal
the limit on guarantee payment made when employees are not provided with work and
the minimum basic award for unfair dismissal in health and safety and certain other cases.

The changes include a new upper limit on the amount of compensation for unfair dismissal, which rises from £65,300 to £68,400, and a new £400 maximum for a week’s pay in calculation of redundancy payments, up from £380.
