How many weeks’ notice you’re owed, what it pays, and how much of it is taxed. Your employer owes you notice when they end your job: one week if you have been there under two years, then one week for every full year, up to twelve. This works out your weeks and what they pay — and then the part people get wrong. Notice pay is not covered by the £30,000 tax-free allowance that shelters redundancy pay; if it is paid in lieu it is taxed as normal earnings. And if your employer has gone bust and the state pays instead, the amount is capped at £751 a week and reduced by benefits you claimed — or could have claimed, even if you never applied.
