Add Comment Question: I was employed for 28 years and let go after the 28th year. Was i entitlted to some severance pay from my employer. It was a family owned business, my husband owned the business and i was on the payroll for 28 years. I was the bookeeper amongst other duties to long to mention. Our marriage ended and he then told me i was no longer employed. He then hired someone else to replace me. I am 53 years of age , no education.He did not offer me any severance, so again my question is would i be entitled to severance pay. I was on salary, employed seasonally for 28 years.Hoping to hear back from you. Thank you Jocelyne Lavallee Answer: You are most definitely owed severance and the amount is significant. It could be as much as 2 years pay. Please give me a call as soon as possible to discuss this.
