Add Comment Question: I am currently on maternity leave. Nine(9) years on the job, my boss has advised me that my job will no longer exist when I come back as they will be outsourcing my dept. Upon my return, I can work for a few months and then they will give me a termination pay of 23 weeks, plus vacation days incurred. If I don't sign the agreement back, then I will receive only 19wks pay(minimum). I am not interested in returning to work for an extra 3mos unless I cannot find another job. So my question is, " If I find another job before my return work date, am I still entitled to the severance pay of 19wks"?. Answer: This depends on many factors, including what the job is and how they have structured the offer to you. You may, in fact, not have to go back at all and be owed much more than 23 weeks. Just give me a call so that I can get more information and I can then tell you exactly what your options are.
