If you are being made redundant, it might be that your termination date is not for some time, e.g. 3-6 months. In such cases it is not uncommon for you to have to sign two settlement agreements. The second settlement agreement would be on the same terms as the first and would be signed just before the termination date to confirm that you have not brought any grievances during the 3-6 month-period. You would also give all the warranties that you gave in the first agreement. Usually, your legal adviser would also need to sign new adviser’s certificate.
If you need legal advice on the terms of your settlement agreement or to negotiate a better redundancy package, please contact an employment solicitor at enquiries@rtcooperssolicitors.com or visit one of the following pages on employment law:
