At TX-UK the syllabus does not include the taxability of termination payments on the employee which is where the distinction between the types of payment is required. At TX-UK you simply need to know that such payments are allowable expenses for the employer in determining their taxable profit. The limitation of the allowable deduction on redundancy payments to 3 times the statutory redundancy payment is ONLY applicable when the employer business CEASES trading.
