Are you entitled to sick pay if you work full time?

Being in full time employment if my employer lays me off as he as no work am i still entitled to pay?

  • Answer:

    This depends on how long you worked there. You say 'lays you off'. Do you mean made you redundant. If so then you entitled to redundancy pay if you been there over 2 years. It works out at a weeks wage for every year you been there over 2 years. Hope this helps. The citizens advice bureau will tell you more on your right, and your boss's responsibility's

no... if he is laying you off. He has to pay equivalent to notice period

It is a Real BiG World

If your employer is laying you off because he has no work for you, then you are in fact being made redundant. If you have worked for the company/firm for at least 2 years, you could be entitled to a reduncancy payment. Visit the website below for further details. If you've been employed for less than 2 years, then you will have no entitlement to a redundancy payment and will only receive payment for any holiday accrued plus, if you were unable to work one week's notice, then you're entitled to one week's pay in lieu of notice. (I'm assuming you're in the UK).

you might be entitled to redundancy pay, but you would need to check your contract to find out. chances are you would be entitled to a small lump some if you filed for redundancy. check it out

You need to check your contract to see if you will get guaranteed payments during a lay off. They are usually not as much as your wage, and if youre not contracted to get them then I dont think you'll get anything.

No. You're only entitled to pay if you're under contract to receive it under these specific conditions.

if your employer has no work for you to do, they may put you on short-time working or lay you off. Short-time working means you will receive only part of your normal wage. If you are laid off, you will not usually get paid. A person who is laid off or put on short-time working may be entitled to a payment from their employer, called a ‘guarantee payment’. If you have been laid off or put on short-time working you should consult an experienced adviser about the benefits and other payments you may be entitled to, for example, a Citizens Advice Bureau.

Think about it - the only point in laying you off is to save the money he pays you as wages.
