Sierra said:I'm due three to four weeks holiday pay which I intend to use after I've been made redundant. Could I technically claim the dole while I'm on this or after I've returned from Oz?
My boss keeps offering me keep me on one day a week, not very practical but could this affect my right to redundancy money?
westsider said:I was made redundant in May 2004 - I left for the US two days later and did not work while I was abroad. I returned to Ireland the following November and took myself off down to the local dole office once home. I signed on and was told that there is approx 6 (I think) weeks between redundancy and your entitlement to receive money (the perid of disqualification mentioned earlier). Even though I was not in the country during the period May to November (hence not looking for work) my claim was accepted from the date I applied i.e. they did not make me wait an additional 6 weeks. I would recommend you take a look at regarding the shortening of your working week though. HTH
