How do I get my redundancy paid?

[kipkeno]

I was made redundant 2 years ago.
The company promised to pay redundancy plus the salary that had been unpaid up to that point.
Needless to say they did not pay.

I took them to the WRC and won the case.
They still did not pay

I took them to the District court and won the case.
They still have not paid.

Does anyone have any advice on what next steps could be?
Is it possible to place a note or charge on the Companies Registration details, stating that there is a court order against them?

Any advice is welcome.

Thanks.

Can you go through the redundancy payment scheme, still in operation with the DSP?

Redundancy Payment Scheme

The Redundancy Payment Scheme makes statutory redundancy payments from the Social Insurance Fund to an employee where an employer is unable to make a statutory redundancy payment.

In this case it appears that the company won't pay, not that they can't pay

Thank you Fionclaire.
I should have stated that I was working with them for less than the 104 weeks to qualify for the RPS.

I took them to the District court and won the case.

Did the judge/court not order them to pay or maybe register a judgment against them? If they did then presumably the company would be in contempt of court and there could be serious repercussions for them as a result of their failure to pay up? Did you have legal advice? If you did then what does your solicitor advise?

Thank you JPD.
That is correct.

Ultimately a sheriff needs to be appointed to execute the judgement order and collect the debt.
