Description

A Release is a document which, if properly used, effectively extinguishes potential causes of action on the part of the releasing party. Thus, in employment situations, the Release is usually a written record of the intention of an employee to relinquish claims of all sorts against the employer. A severance agreement is a contract between an employer and employee documenting the rights and responsibilities of both parties in the event of job termination. The contract specifies any severance package of pay and benefits and the conditions under which it will be provided or withheld.



An Accord and Satisfaction is an Agreement between two parties to a contract, in which one party (which has a legal claim against the other) releases the other party from its obligations in return for some form of compensation. The agreement is the 'accord,' and the compensation is the 'satisfaction.'

FAQ

If you receive severance within 30 days of the last day you worked, you cannot collect unemployment until the severance runs out. If you receive your first severance payment more than 30 days after your last day, the severance will not affect the weekly benefits.

You generally are not entitled to a severance package from your employer, but some employers offer it to get you to sign a separation agreement and give up your rights to sue your employer.

A severance or exit package is a bundle of benefits offered to employees who are laid off, terminated, or, under specific circumstances, voluntarily leave their jobs. They most often include financial compensation, continuation of certain benefits, and placement services to find a new job.

Negotiate severance as needed. Sign the severance agreement. Contact a lawyer. Review the severance package.

New York requires employers to provide a written termination letter to employees, regardless of whether the employee's termination was voluntary or involuntary. The letter must state the date of termination of employment, and the date of termination of benefits.

Since there is no New York state law two weeks notice requirement, employers do not have to guarantee employment to their workers. While employees do not have to give two weeks' notice, employers can also terminate a worker's job at any point.

This notice must be provided within five days after separation. New York also requires employers that provide a group health insurance plan and have fewer than 20 employees to notify separated employees of their right to continue coverage under New York's state-level COBRA law.

Most termination clauses are an agreement between the employer and the employee that in the event the employer elects to dismiss the employee without cause, the employee will only receive what they are entitled to under the Employment Standards Code.

New York observes “at-will” employment laws, meaning an employer can terminate a worker at any time for any reason or without reason. This works both ways, as employees can also quit their jobs without cause or notice. However, employers cannot fire employees for certain illegal reasons.
