A termination clause is a provision in the employment contract that defines the rights of the employee at the termination of the employment relationship. It typically determines how much notice period and severance an employee is entitled to when the termination is on a without-cause basis.
Severance packages are intended to help ease the transition out of your terminated position. But while a severance package offer can be a great benefit, it can be important to give any offer careful consideration before accepting it because it is a contract between you and the company.
