I have just found out that my whole department is being made redundant.
We are about to enter a 30 day consultation period and after that I am on two months notice, this will bring me to within 15 weeks of my baby's due date. Providing they don't invent any loopholes, I should qualify for SMP but can anybody tell me if this will be 6 weeks at 90% and then 33 weeks at SMP? I am unsure if the 6 weeks at 90% is classed as SMP legally? To me it's a lot of money and would like to know if there is any reason why they don't have to pay it.
Also if they say they will pay my SMP as one lump sum would i not be worse of on Tax and NI? Can I insist they pay it monthly as normal?
I've got a 1-1 with HR soon and would like to be forewarned and forearmed!! Thanks to anyone who can help me!
