Hours and pay dropped with 16 hours notice

Tell HR your copy of the updated staff handbook didn't arrive and ask for it to be resent.

 

You need to know what it says to see what the company is entitled to do.

 

Being on an annual salary doesn't automatically mean your pay can't be reduced for short time working.

Does your contract or employee handbook say anything about how redundancy pay will be calculated?

 

If it says nothing then then I think you would only get statutory redundancy pay. Hopefully @Emmzzi can confirm this but I believe that your weekly pay for statutory redundancy purposes is the average you earned each week in the 12 weeks before you get your redundancy notice.  So yes your redundancy would be based, wholly or partly, on your short time working pay.

 

However companies can pay redundancy at higher rates if that is in your contract.  So important to check what your contract or employee handbook says.

 

There's a government website that let's you calculate what your statutory redundancy pay would be. You can test out various scenarios to see what you would get.
