There is no requirement in the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA) for severance pay. Severance pay is a matter of agreement between an employer and an employee (or the employees representative).
Maryland law does not require the award of benefits. Examples include vacation leave, sick leave, compensatory time, holidays and holiday pay, health and life insurance, bonuses, severance pay, etc. The right to claim benefits only arises through a prior agreement of the parties.
A severance or exit package is a bundle of benefits offered to employees who are laid off, terminated, or, under specific circumstances, voluntarily leave their jobs. They most often include financial compensation, continuation of certain benefits, and placement services to find a new job.
If you received or will receive severance pay, you will not receive UI benefit payments until this pay is exhausted.
The vast majority of employment relationships in Maryland and D.C. are what the law refers to as at-will. This generally means that an employer may terminate an employee for any reason or no reason, while an employee may leave his or her job for any reason or no reason.
