Understanding Separation/Severance Agreements

What is a Severance Agreement? When an employment relationship ends, either party may enter into a severance agreement. This contract typically offers the departing employee compensation in exchange for waiving certain rights, such as pursuing legal action against the employer for potential violations of employment laws.
