ok here it goes... basicly our company(hasnt gone bust) made 76million pound profit this year allready..just opening up factorys around the world..(we been training the other countrys) and then basicly we where spose to be changing to a new pre preg form of blades... but because of the reccesion...they said we will wait till the end of the tax year before we announce what we doing... finaly gets to the announcement and they decdied to shut all of the uk plants and say its because the english govermemnt isnt working hard enough to push through plans for rewable energy...so basicly we are all getting made redundent...
the redundecy package is basicly govermemnt min with a company enhancment..
the enhancment was years of service doubled and payed at company rate...
whihc is basicly

u been here 2 years u get 4 year service meaning 4 weeks pay

u been here 5 years u get 10 year service meaning 10 weeks pay

well i been here 3 years... so i was expecting to get 6 weeks pay....but beacuse i was under 22 for the 3 years i been here...i only get half of it... so im back on 3 weeks pay...
what pisses me off is theres people there for 2 years that are taking home more then me and sombody over 41 whos been there a year gets the same as me... i had a huge falling out with my boss i basicly said to him..do u know how it feels to have to turn up for work everyday knowing your going to lose your job and still only walking away with half of what everybody else is going to get... so i told him im doing the absolute min but enough so they cant sack me... can shove the job up there arse now.. fucked over by the company and they blaming the govermemnt then i get fucked over but the goverment .. u gota love english politics

They aren't the best people to work for... I was there for a bit and they hated the word 'Union'

vestas dont reconise a union... denmark will be ok as they have a union and there backed by the goverment... we just get fucked over... basicly its government standered


copyed off this website
hxxp://www.redundancyexpert.co.uk/how-much-statutory-redundancy-pay-will-i-get.html

The government believes that the experience of redundancy is less disruptive to the lives of young people than to older workers. Young people tend to find it easier to get new jobs quickly at approximately the same salary as before. Because of age discrimination in the workplace, this is more difficult for older workers.

The amount of statutory redundancy pay you will receive is affected by your age during the time you were working for your employer.

  • For each year of continuous service in which you were less than 22, you will get half of your basic weekly pay.
  • For each year of continuous service in which you were between 22 and 40, you will get your standard weekly pay.
  • For each year of continuous service in which you were over 41, you will get 1.5 times your standard weekly pay.



so u can see the politics in that... because of age discrimination in a work place..the government discriminate the young people to even the balance out...
