Payment of statutory redundancy is, in the first instance, a matter for the employer. An employer who makes a statutory redundancy payment to an employee is entitled to apply for a rebate of 60% of the total cost from the Social Insurance Fund (SIF). There is no record in my Department of any application for a rebate on behalf of the former employer of the person mentioned.
