Controlling law: **Fair Work Act 2009 (Cth)**, National Employment Standards — **s 117** (notice/payment in lieu) and **s 119** (redundancy pay).

**(a) Minimum notice: 4 weeks.** Six years’ continuous service is **“more than 5 years”** under the s 117(3) table, giving **4 weeks**. The extra week for an employee **over 45** with at least 2 years’ service does not apply. Payment in lieu does not reduce the period.

**(b) Redundancy pay: 11 weeks of base pay.** Six years’ continuous service falls within **“at least 6 years but less than 7 years”** in the s 119(1) table, item 6: **11 weeks**. Under s 119(2), a week’s pay is at the employee’s **base rate of pay** for ordinary hours. Because the employer is **not a small business employer**, the s 121(1)(b) exclusion does not apply.
