SECTION 5.39<br />
39. Who pays my redundancy pay if my employer becomes insolvent?<br />
If your employer is insolvent redundancy payments count among those debts that take priority over<br />
others.<br />
If your employer fails to pay your statutory redundancy payment,you may apply to the Department of<br />
Trade and Industry for payment out of the National Insurance Fund.<br />
It is quicker to apply to the DTI on your employer’s insolvency than to wait for payment(if any)from the<br />
Insolvency Administrators.If the DTI pays out,they will then claim as much as possible from the<br />
Insolvency Administrator.You cannot claim the same amount twice.<br />
Make a claim to the DTI within six months of your redundancy.<br />
Your full redundancy payment should be paid out of the National Insurance Fund.<br />
Any question about the employer’s liability to pay or the amount of the payment due should be referred<br />
to an Employment Tribunal.There is no time limit.<br />
REMEMBER: there may be more than one person affected by this issue.<br />
Consider calling a meeting to advise,recruit and organise.
