Most places have an opt-out if you're reducing headcount (e.g. due to cost cutting measures rather than firing individual employees due to specific or specific reasons)
- dizhn 3y agoYes we have it too. It's not automatically a "just" cause. The workers have the right to sue to be reinstated. That usually nets them 8-12 months of their salary above what they already got as severance. (And severance is not optional either) If they resign though. It's a clean departure. Company pays nothing and can even get paid if the employee does not work in the severance period. Of course in the current case there would be a deal for resigning.
