Redundancy occurs when you ask your Personal Assistant to leave, either because their role is no longer needed or because you need to reduce your staff numbers.

Your Personal Assistant will have specific rights, which may include redundancy pay, a notice period, consultation, and time off to search for a new job.

If you make your Personal Assistant redundant, you must follow the legal requirements for redundancy.

If your Personal Assistant has been employed for two years or more, you are required to pay statutory redundancy pay. The amount will depend on your Personal Assistant's age and the length of their employment with you.
