Limits on amount of and entitlement to guarantee paymentN.I.
63.—(1) The amount of a guarantee payment payable to an employee in respect of any day shall not exceed [F1£38.00].
(2) An employee is not entitled to guarantee payments in respect of more than the specified number of days in any period of three months.
(3) The specified number of days for the purposes of paragraph (2) is the number of days, not exceeding five, on which the employee normally works in a week under the contract of employment in force on the day in respect of which the guarantee payment is claimed.
(4) But where that number of days varies from week to week or over a longer period, the specified number of days is instead—
(a)the average number of such days, not exceeding five, calculated by dividing by twelve the total number of such days during the period of twelve weeks ending with the last complete week before the day in respect of which the guarantee payment is claimed, and rounding up the resulting figure to the next whole number, or
(b)where the employee has not been employed for a sufficient period to enable the calculation to be made under sub-paragraph (a), a number which fairly represents the number of the employee's normal working days in a week, not exceeding five, having regard to such of the considerations specified in paragraph (5) as are appropriate in the circumstances.
(5) The considerations referred to in paragraph (4)(b) are—
(a)the average number of normal working days in a week which the employee could expect in accordance with the terms of his contract, and
(b)the average number of such days of other employees engaged in relevant comparable employment with the same employer.
(6) If in any case an employee's contract has been varied, or a new contract has been entered into, in connection with a period of short-time working, paragraphs (3) and (4) have effect as if for the references to the day in respect of which the guarantee payment is claimed there were substituted references to the last day on which the original contract was in force.
[F2(7) The Department may by order vary—
(a)the length of the period specified in paragraph (2);
(b)a limit specified in paragraph (3) or (4).]
F1Sum in art. 63(1) substituted (6.4.2024) by The Employment Rights (Increase of Limits) Order (Northern Ireland) 2024 (S.R. 2024/86), arts. 1(1), 3, Sch. (with art. 4)

This timeline shows the different points in time where a change occurred. The dates will coincide with the earliest date on which the change (e.g an insertion, a repeal or a substitution) that was applied came into force. The first date in the timeline will usually be the earliest date when the provision came into force. In some cases the first date is 01/02/1991 (or for Northern Ireland legislation 01/01/2006). This date is our basedate. No versions before this date are available. For further information see the Editorial Practice Guide and Glossary under Help.
