Employee severance packages are calculated by looking at an individual’s:
- Job or position
- Pay or salary
- Length of service or seniority
- Ability to find a similar job or pay elsewhere
- Benefits
- Bonus pay
- Commissions
- Stock options
- Employment contract
- Recruitment from a previous employer
Note: Your severance package may also be affected by other factors unique to your situation, which is why you should talk to an employer lawyer to get a full understanding about your rights.
Should I accept my employer’s initial severance offer?
No. If you have been let go or fired, for cause or without cause, you should not immediately accept or sign off on any severance offer or termination papers from your employer!
You have a right to review any documentation thoroughly and respond when you are comfortable with your decision. You can also ignore any deadline an employer imposes on your severance offer, as you have two years from the day of termination to file a legal claim for proper severance.
The difference between a fair, complete severance package and the initial offer from employers can amount to thousands, even tens of thousands of dollars – money that is legally yours!
