NOTE: An individual who receives remuneration in lieu of notice for a period of less than a calendar week may be eligible for partial unemployment benefits for such week. âSeverance pay,â if paid within the context of contractual obligation or by custom, is a taxable fringe benefit under Administrative Code 12:16-4.3. It is subject to state unemployment, temporary disability, workforce development and family leave insurance contributions. However, severance pay is not considered wages earned when calculating unemployment benefits for claimants. âContinuation payâ is also known as sick leave pay. Continuation pay is considered wages and is taxable under Administrative Code 12:16-4.2. It is subject to state unemployment, temporary disability, workforce development and family leave insurance contributions.
Many people operate under the assumption that they have a right to severance pay. There is, however, no general right to severance. That is, there is no law which states that employers must provide severance pay to employees who are being laid off. Instead, severance is voluntary on the part of the employer. The employer can offer to pay severance or it can refuse to pay severance. In general, it is entirely up to the employer.
