SZV INFO: SEVERANCE PAY

Cessantia, or severance pay, is the compensation that an employer is obligated to pay to an employee upon dismissal or discharge from an employment not due to any fault of the employee.

The Cessantia must be paid by the employer! You can only claim Cessantia payment from SZV in case no severance can be paid by the employer due to:

- Bankruptcy

- Suspension of payment ordered by the court
