Unfortunately, many employers try to get away with terminating employees without offering them the severance they deserve. If this happens to you, don’t settle for less than you deserve and don’t sign away your rights before understanding what they are.
When terminating a worker, employers have an obligation to consider the worker’s age, the amount of time they have spent in their role, the availability of other similar jobs, and the nature of that person’s work. These factors play into the amount of severance that a terminated worker will receive. If any employer fails to consider these, their severance offer will inevitably fall short of what that worker deserves.
Employers will often deliberately low-ball terminated employees and offer them less than they deserve. This is when it becomes critically important to understand how much severance you are entitled to and how to negotiate with your employer. In order to do so successfully, you will most definitely need the help of an experienced employment law lawyer.
If your employer has let you go and is trying to dismiss you without offering you an appropriately-sized layoff package, involve a lawyer as soon as possible in order to get the money you deserve.
