Getting severance pay does not disqualify an employee from receiving unemployment benefits, and the question turns on whether the employee would be disqualified from receiving unemployment compensation on the basis of either misconduct or voluntary termination (a voluntary quit), just like any other case.
If severance pay does extend the employment relationship, however, unemployment benefits may not be available until the severance ends. For example, if you receive a lump sum amount of severance on your last day of work, you may apply for unemployment.
Some of the most common reasons for disqualification from receipt of benefits are: Quitting a job voluntarily without good cause connected with work. Being discharged/fired from work for just cause. Refusing an offer of suitable work for which the claimant is reasonably suited.

The file should have an employee termination checklist form to be followed and basic details of the employee such as name, department, position as well as important details such as the reason for termination, last day of work and the name of the person handling their file.
