English term or phrase: between two and four weeks' pay
New laws which came into force in October 2004 mean that an employment tribunal can make your employer pay you between two and four weeks' pay if they don't give you a written statement.

Anybody coming with translation of this complete sentence? What do you think - is this a kind of penalty or just a payment of work?

It looks like a condition or provision of law.


Explanation:
It appears that it is not mandatory for the employers to offer a contract of employement to their employees. It is not binding or compulsory for them to finalise a contract of employment with their employees. It is still not pretty clear from the text whether employment tribunal forces the employers to pay between two and four weeks' pay as a penalty or whether it is a condition or provision of law.

Anyway, I think you should not encounter any problem in translating the abovementioned phrase whatever the nature of this payment is because you may safely translate it as "do say chAr hafto(n) kii tankhwAh". I think it is not necessary for you to explain it whether it is a "zurmAnA" or something else.

Hope this helps.
