Severance pay

Uses average daily wage and days worked. Weekly holiday pay sits on the same screen. Amounts stay in this browser.

Why this exists

The result is not a monthly salary times years. Whether the window has 89 or 92 days changes the amount.

Weekly rest pay uses the same hourly wage and is separate from severance.

    Choose the start date and the last day worked.

    Enter the last three months of pay, and a yearly bonus or leave pay if any.

    Open Weekly rest and enter the hourly wage and weekly hours.
