Description

A Severance Agreement outlines the terms under which an employee leaves a company, typically in exchange for financial compensation and continued benefits. The contract may include severance pay, extended healthcare coverage, stock options, and a release of legal claims against the employer. Severance agreements protect businesses from potential lawsuits while providing financial support to departing employees. These agreements are common in layoffs, executive departures, and corporate restructuring. Employees should carefully review severance terms to ensure fair treatment, especially regarding non-compete clauses and legal rights waivers.
