Terms of Use
1. Information Only — Not Legal or Financial Advice
The content on UK Redundancy Calculator (https://ukredundancycalculator.co.uk) is provided for general information purposes only. It is not intended to constitute, and should not be relied upon as, legal advice, financial advice, tax advice, or any other form of professional advice.
While we make every effort to ensure that the information and calculations on this website are accurate and up to date, redundancy law and tax regulations can be complex and subject to change. The information provided here is a simplified summary of statutory entitlements and may not cover every individual circumstance.
2. No Liability for Calculations
The redundancy pay calculator and notice period calculator on this website are tools designed to provide estimates based on the statutory formula. We do not guarantee the accuracy, completeness or reliability of any calculations produced by these tools.
Specifically, we accept no liability for:
- Errors in the calculations, whether caused by software bugs, incorrect input data, or changes in legislation that have not yet been reflected in the calculator
- Any decisions made or actions taken based on the results of the calculator
- Any financial loss, missed entitlements, or other damages arising from reliance on the information provided by this website
- Differences between the calculator's estimate and the actual redundancy payment made by your employer
The calculations do not take into account contractual or enhanced redundancy terms, which may differ significantly from the statutory minimum. Your employer may offer more (or in rare cases less, if they are insolvent) than the statutory amount.
3. Always Consult a Qualified Professional
If you are facing redundancy, we strongly recommend that you seek advice from a qualified professional before making any decisions. Appropriate sources of advice include:
- ACAS (Advisory, Conciliation and Arbitration Service) — Provides free and impartial workplace advice. Helpline: 0300 123 1100 or visit ACAS website
- Citizens Advice — Offers free advice on employment rights. Visit Citizens Advice website
- A qualified employment solicitor — Particularly if you believe your redundancy may be unfair or if you are negotiating an enhanced package or settlement agreement
- A qualified accountant or tax adviser — If you have questions about the tax treatment of your redundancy payment
- Your trade union representative — If you are a member of a trade union, your representative can advise and support you through the process
