Eligibility Requirement for Voluntary Severance Pay in a Social Plan
OGH 29.4.2021, 9 ObA 9/21w - Eligibility requirement for voluntary severance pay in a social plan.
The granting of a voluntary severance payment in a social plan can effectively be made dependent on the waiver of a termination challenge. It is therefore permissible to agree in a social plan that voluntary severance pay will only be granted to those employees who do not contest the termination implemented on the basis of the social plan.
