Question regarding pay notice

[tiger.banana]

Recently handed my one week notice into the company that I currently work for, and as stated in the contract of employment, it says

'The Employer reserves the right to pay salary (at the rate payable under clause 6.1 above) in lieu of notice'

What does this mean for me? Do I get paid for the week's notice?

Thanks in advance

It means that if they decide to get rid of you, they can have you out of the door today, but have to pay you for the notice period that would normally have applied.

Since you have resigned, you work out your notice period and get paid as normal.

Thank you for you reply

What do I do if my current employer does not pay me for this month's work?

I work on an hourly rate, and my times are noted down, just a bit wary over them not paying me as I'm not leaving on a happy note
