Section 11(3) says \"an amount not exceeding two weeks' pay\", so a tribunal may award less; and a worker whose own week's pay is below the statutory limit is capped at their own week's pay, not at this figure — the limit caps the calculation, it does not set it. The week-count is `employment.tribunal.right_to_be_accompanied_award` and the cap is `employment.redundancy.weekly_pay_cap`; this record is only their product (D14), and the build refuses a build in which the three disagree.",
    "notes": "Not a figure any document states, which is the whole reason it is a derivation. GOV.UK's page on being accompanied at a disciplinary or grievance hearing names no compensation amount at all — that is why the week-count record is single-source A — so there is no B side to register here either, and both limbs are cited as legislation instead. The record is dated from the cap, not from the Act: the Act's two weeks have not moved and the cap moves every April.",
