FIRED? SHOULD YOUR CALIFORNIA EMPLOYER BE PROVIDING YOU WITH SEVERANCE PAY?
You’re a California employee. You’ve been working for your company for a while. And recently, due to the bad economy, or maybe just bad luck, you were fired. Should your CA employer give you a severance package? Maybe. Maybe not. An experienced employment lawyer can help you answer that question.
With all this talk we’ve been hearing about severance packages — usually for executives and workers at big companies — many CA workers assume that severance pay is a given. However, usually without a labor contract that specifies a severance deal, you have no such rights. No federal or CA state law requires severance pay. But the good news for you, a CA employee, is that providing severance pay has morphed into common practice. Your contract might require that your employer give you severance pay upon your termination.
If you are a CA employee who believes your employer should have provided you with a severance package, per the terms of your employment, the experienced legal team of Greenberg & Rudman LLP is here to help. We have over 50 years of experience representing employees in discrimination claims against their employers. Our track record is proven --- we can help you.
