Is it appropriate to give severance
packages to departing employees?
Yes, it is. It is important to treat people well at all points in this process,
and to do whatever possible to help smooth the transition for those employees
who find themselves leaving. Making this a priority can help assuage employees’ fears
as well as to set a tone of respect and understanding. It may also be appropriate
to offer job search support for those who are leaving, or pay for a session
with a career counselor who may help the person identify what he or she would
like to pursue next.
