How it is calculated

  1. Employees with at least 104 weeks (2 years) of continuous service qualify. Compensation is 2 weeks' pay per year for the first 4 years, 2.5 for years 5–10, 3 for 11–15, 3.5 for 16–20 and 4 for 21–25. Maximum 75.5 weeks.

  2. The weekly wage taken into account is capped at the maximum insurable earnings (€1,325 per week in 2026). Monthly pay converts to weekly as ×12÷52.

  3. Minimum employer notice: 1 week for 26–51 weeks of service, 2 for 52–103, 4 for 104–155, 5 for 156–207, 6 for 208–259, 7 for 260–311 and 8 weeks from 312 weeks onwards.

Frequently asked questions

Who pays redundancy compensation?

The Redundancy Fund, not the employer. The claim (form SIS 600) is filed within 3 months of termination.

Is the compensation taxed?

Redundancy Fund compensation is exempt from income tax. Other termination payments from the employer follow their own rules.
