A severance package is pay and benefits an employee receives when he or she leaves employment at a company. In addition to the employee's remaining regular pay, it may include some of the following: * An additional payment based on months of service * Payment for unused vacation time or sick leave. * A payment in lieu of a required notice period. * Medical, dental or life insurance * Retirement (e.g., 401(k)) benefits * Stock options * Assistance in searching for new work, such as access to employment services or help in producing a résumé. * The package may require the severed employee to sign a non-disparagement clause .〔http://www.computerworld.com/article/2855642/displaced-it-workers-are-being-silenced.html〕 Packages are most typically offered for employees who are laid off or retire. Severance pay was instituted to help protect the newly unemployed. Sometimes, they may be offered for people who resign, regardless of the circumstances; or are fired. Policies for severance packages are often found in a company's employee handbook, and in many countries are subject to strict government regulation. Severance contracts often stipulate that the employee will not sue the employer for wrongful dismissal or attempt to collect on unemployment benefits, and that if the employee does so, then they must return the severance money. ==Canada== 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Severance package」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
