Employer Withholding Severance In Illinois

Q: Can you ask your employer for severance?

All you can do is ask. They&#039;ll probably say no but you&#039;re bound by the companies severance policy/program but legally it&#039;s not a required benefit. BUT keep in mind the company wants you to sign that agreement at the end of the day so you could get more. You could try and use trigger words during your conversation.
