We had a round of voluntary redundancies a while ago. Someone applied for it and took it but didn't say that she had got another job which was more lucrative but it has slipped out. Could HR take the money off her?

Has she been accepted for redundancy? If so then there is nothing they can do.
Obviously not.
And good luck to them, too.....
(Unless the OP means they have been made redundant and then found a better paid job, in which case I struggle to see what they think could be wrong with this - It's what you're supposed to do)
after 40 it goes up to a week and a half per years service
This is for.the public sector? I got about a years pay for 6 yrs service last year!
We were told that if we got employment before our finish date then we would not get a payout - obviously no one got a job within these dates!
Sorry, could you clarify please? 40 years service or aged 40?
entitlement will depend on what your contract states, but the statutory minimums are at the links above and below

Lucky bugger. To be fair though he bought us all drinks and none of us begrudged him it
Since I've been with my current employer over 20 years (ignoring take overs and mergers which the law does) I'm not going to resign any time soon
no this is private sector not head in the clouds public sector
you are right 41 i stand corrected and also i though it was a week per year before and a week and a half after, according to the web site its half a week per year before and week and a half after
but i remember getting a week per year last time i was made redundant when i was under 40, i suppose it depends how much of a tight arse boss you have
that's against the law and none of their business especially if you start the job after the 12 days are up
at age 41
When the University last offered a payment to trim staffing it offered a years salary (untaxed) and that was whether you had worked here for 40 years or 1 year.
The only reason they can take it away from you once you get a new job is if you get a new job within the same company, because they haven't then made you redundant.
It wont affect you redundancy payment but i know of one case were someone earmarked for redundancy bought a new home
by the seaside to retire early, the company decided not to let him go .dropped himself right in it.
No problems looking for a new job,don't commit yourself to moving till all the redundancy papers are signed.
It's only half a week for the period before you are 22 years old, then 1 week up to age 41 then one and half after that.
You will get:
0.5 week’s pay for each full year of service where your age was under 22
1 week’s pay for each full year of service where your age was 22 or above, but under 41
1.5 week’s pay for each full year of service where your age was 41 or above
Head in the clouds? :?
Depends who you work for.;)
I got 3 weeks for each year working in the private sector. My wife got 4.5.
