Awesome that it worked out for you! That said, 9 months of pay as severance for 20 years of work seems a bit disappointing.
In my country it's currently one month of pay per year worked for layoffs where the employee was not at fault.

- scarby2 4y agowhere is this? I've lived a few places and never heard of something so generous. It's normally closer to 1-2 weeks per year. Also in the UK, ireland and france they put a very low cap on the weekly pay.
- christkv 4y agoIn Spain it’s 22 days per year worked up to 24 months I think. But the pay is also exempt from income tax.

- blibble 4y agoin the UK the cap is for the statutory redundancy if the employer wishes to give you more they are perfectly free to (and it's very, very common to)
- pards 4y agoOne week per year is standard in Canada, too
- YZF 4y agoThat's what the law says as a minimum but in practice it's more like a month. That's because whenever it goes to court you'll get awarded a month on average. At least I'm pretty sure that's what it's like in BC.
