TUPE redundancy calculator: using this tool after a transfer
If you searched for a TUPE redundancy calculator, you can still use this calculator. The key issue is whether your pre-transfer service is preserved as continuous service.
- Enter your full years including pre-transfer years when TUPE continuity applies.
- Use our TUPE and redundancy pay guide to confirm what usually carries over.
- If close to 2 years, verify exact dates in our continuous service and eligibility guide.
Always compare your estimate with your employer's written breakdown of years counted and weekly pay used.
