I was working for a company as a contractor for five years and then went permanent with them for the last two years.

They are making redundancies, and will be offering a package of 6 weeks salary
per year of service.

Am I entitled to include the years as a contractor or just the two years I was permanent when calculating my entitlement?
Any help would be great - thanks.
