How we worked it out
Updated as you change the numbers.
- Counting back from your age, each full year earns 1.5 weeks at 41 or older, 1 week from 22 to 40, and half a week under 22: 12 weeks over 10 years.
- Pay = 12 × £700.00 = £8,400.00.
Method and assumptions
GOV.UK: half a week’s pay for each full year under 22, one week’s pay for each full year from 22 to 40, and one and a half weeks’ pay for each full year aged 41 or older; length of service capped at 20 years; weekly pay capped at £751 for redundancies on or after 6 April 2026 (maximum £22,530).
