FAQ
Oregon Severance Pay PackagesOregon does not require employers to offer severance pay to the employees they terminate, but does require employers to abide by their companies' established wage policies or specific employment contracts that have entered into with individual employees that deal with severance pay.
If you receive the severance package in one lump sum, then it shouldn't affect your unemployment benefits, unless you receive the lump sum after you've started receiving unemployment payments.
If termination is due to a layoff or position elimination covered under the WARN Act, notices need to be sent out 60 days prior to termination.
Job abandonment occurs when an employee does not report to work as scheduled and has no intention of returning to the job but does not notify the employer of his or her intention to quit.
When an employee is leaving your company, you might expect they give two weeks' notice, but that doesn't mean they will. Despite work etiquette and standards, there are no laws requiring employees to give any notice, let alone two weeks, before quitting.
Not unless you have an established practice or policy of paying other employees for the remainder of the two-week notice period. Under Oregon's final paycheck law, you will need to pay your employee all wages earned but unpaid by the end of the next business day after you release the employee.
Section 41(1) of the Basic Conditions of Employment Act, 1997 provides that a retrenched employee is entitled to severance pay at least equal to one week's remuneration for every year of completed service with the employer. This obligation to pay severance pay is tempered by the provisions of section 41(4).
Are termination letters required? Most companies are not required by law to give employees letters of termination. The exceptions are those located in Arizona, California, Illinois and New Jersey. Most employers, however, do provide termination letters as a professional courtesy and a legal record.
An employer who wants to avoid paying severance must provide advanced written notice the longer you have worked at the company, the more notice must be provided. According to the employment standards in Alberta: After serving three months, an employer must give you one week's notice.
Oregon laws allow the termination of an employment relationship by either the employer or the employee, without notice and without cause.
