I am on a 60 day non working notice period (effective August 5, was relieved of my working duties on this date) were I was told in my notice letter that I will receive 10 weeks severance if I don't find a job by then. The notice letter wasn't clear though on what my next steps are if I find a job during that period. If I end up finding a job before the notice period is up, would I still qualify for severance ? They stated that I would be entitled to 10 weeks if I don't find a job by then. What are my obligations to my current employer of I find a job before the notice period expires. Would I have to inform them (ie "resign" from my position" ) ? On the other end, if I don't find employment during the notice period, and they offer the 10 weeks, but I don't sign the severance package and I consult Legal counsel who then deems I should be entitled to more. During the negotiations of my severance package, would I still be considered an employee of the company (where I will be paid at 100% with full benefits ) while my severance is being negotiated ?
