Hi there,
I hope someone could help me with this. I'll be made redundant in my 27th week of pregnancy due to a management buy out. My company is now telling me that I don't qualify for SMP because my qualifying week is the 11th week before the EWC, not the 15th week you normally hear about. I contacted HMRC and they say its the 15th week, but still the employment lawyer of my company insists on it being the 11th week. He says the 15th week is only important to establish the amount due, not whether you actually get SMP, that's decided on whether I'm still employed in the 11th week. I would be grateful for any advise on this!!!!
TIA,
Spicky
