How to write an employment separation agreement between company and employee? Is the employee obliged to sign an employment separation agreement with the employer?

If the company announces a lay-off, often the employees are offered a separation agreement, to provide conditions for closure and to arrange the ending of the working relationship. If the employee agrees and understands that the benefits provided are reasonable, and the company cannot provide a decent salary and work in the near future, it's best not to fight the separation agreement.

In case of doubt, always consult a local lawyer that is experienced with labor law. Make sure not only to consider legal conditions, but also the existing working relationship. If you choose to sour the relationship with your boss in the end, this might give difficulties later on when you are looking for a new job and you need their reference.
