(1)The amount of a redundancy payment shall be calculated by—

(b)reckoning backwards from the end of that period the number of years of employment falling within that period, and
(c)allowing the appropriate amount for each of those years of employment.

(b)one week’s pay for a year of employment (not within paragraph (a)) in which he was not below the age of twenty-two, and
(c)half a week’s pay for each year of employment not within paragraph (a) or (b).
(3)Where twenty years of employment have been reckoned under subsection (1), no account shall be taken under that subsection of any year of employment earlier than those twenty years.
