Severance arrangements cover ending an employment relationship through redundancy, exit packages, and negotiated settlements. It involves agreeing on terms for leaving, including final pay, accrued holiday, pensions, references, and any post-employment restrictions. A solicitor in this area drafts and negotiates settlement agreements, reviews the employer’s proposed terms, liaises with the human resources team, and ensures compliance with the Employment Rights Act and related employment standards. They may also advise on the implications of non-compete or confidentiality clauses and help protect the client’s statutory rights during the process.
