Hello,

Scenario: I am eligible for 3 week notice period. Company terminates me today and has to pay in lieu of notice.

Pay in lieu of notice is "full amount the employee would have been paid if they had worked until the end of the notice period"

Does that assume the notice period would start from today onward, so therefore any weekend shifts (with penalties) I would've worked are paid including penalties on top? Also would have worked on a public holiday, is that pay included?

Thanks.
