Labour Court recommends further £10,000 redundancy payment from Williams Waller

The Labour Court recommended that Williams Waller Limited pay a worker a further £10,000 lump sum in a dispute over a redundancy settlement. The recommendation was signed on 6 March 1996. The worker had received £60,005 in redundancy pay and a £5,000 top-up. He sought the £20,000 top-up previously paid to another former employee, citing 22 years’ service and difficulty finding permanent work. The company pointed to differences in the employees’ redundancy payments, pensions and prospects of future work.
