can someone please advise on this situation, an employer wants to drop the hourly rate of a person, with the option that if they do not agree to the wage cut they can take voluntary redundancy. However, if they take redundancy the employer says they need to be laid off for three weeks unpaid and then the redundancy if processed. is that the usual process?

if an employee takes voluntary redundancy in this situation, are they still entiltled to the minimum notice payment, e.g for four years, an extra two weeks wages subject to cut off rates.
 
Hi I am not to sure about the time frames but I do know that if you are left go from a job then you must be four weeks without work before you can claim your redundancy,also I cant answer your question about the notice payment.
My fiance was left go from his job over 3 weeks ago now and we are waiting the 4 week period before mentioning redundancy, his employer has not even mention his entitlement to redundancy as we think he may be trying to avoid paying it, also he only gave him 3 days notice which is way out of line, he has been with the same employer with 7 years, 4 being an apprentice so should he still get redundancy?As far as I know he should also he should be entitled to 4 weeks notice payment?
Can anybody give me any info they may have about this please?
