During layoffs, employees have rights under federal and state laws. These may include receiving notice or pay, eligibility for unemployment benefits, and protection from discrimination. It's important to review your employment contract or speak with an employment lawyer to understand your specific situation.
What are severance packages?
A severance package is compensation provided to an employee when they leave a company. It may include pay, benefits continuation, and other perks.
