From the Australian fair work ombudsmen:
When overpayments occur, the employer and employee should discuss and agree on a repayment arrangement.
If the employee agrees to repay the money, a written agreement should be made which sets out the:
-
reason for the overpayment
-
amount of money overpaid
-
way repayments will be made (for example, cash, cheque or electronic transfer) and how often (this has to be reasonable).
Granted, this is generally for overpayment of wages and not specific to redundancy pay. There may be clauses in their contracts with varying terms that allow them to reclaim, but I’m just some dude on the internet.
I terminate Firefox and reopen it any time it’s chewing up my RAM, but I usually don’t have more than 500 tabs open at any one time. My tabs persist when Firefox starts again, but tabs don’t fully load until I click on them again. This saves my memory from getting chewed up immediately, and can usually go a week or so before I need to do it again.
