It combines the wealth of insolvency experience and employment expertise to navigate staff through claims for their employment entitlements from the National Insurance Fund.
It is able to work directly for staff and directors of liquidating companies, and can accept referrals from other insolvency practices.
Information on staff redundancies
Redundancy Assist also provides necessary information on employee redundancy entitlements in the case of company insolvency. In any case, the company has legal duties and obligations when making you redundant, and our experts will outline those obligations and what you can do to receive payments.
All employees are entitled to a notice period and this will, often, be defined by statute, or a written contract where available. Similarly, employees can be paid in lieu of a notice period and are, most importantly, entitled to time off for job hunting if in employment with the business for two years or more. Likewise, employees should receive any outstanding unpaid wages and holiday pay.
