Redundancy Pay Calculator
Calculate your statutory redundancy pay based on UK law. Updated for 2025/26 with the latest weekly pay cap.
How UK Redundancy Pay Works
Statutory redundancy pay is calculated based on your age, weekly gross pay (capped at £643 for 2025/26), and length of service (capped at 20 years). Each year of service earns you a multiplier based on your age during that year. Employees under 22 receive half a week's pay per year; those aged 22–40 receive one week; and those aged 41 and over receive one and a half weeks. The total payment is tax-free up to £30,000.
Enhanced Redundancy Pay
Many UK employers offer enhanced redundancy packages above the statutory minimum. These are outlined in your employment contract or company policy. Enhanced pay may be calculated differently, for example, using your actual weekly pay without the £643 cap, or offering more weeks per year of service. Always check your contract before accepting a redundancy offer.
