Add Comment Question: I am 53 years old (female). I have worked at an organization for 36 years. I have been approached about accepting a severance package. I am open to it just want to ensure I am treating fairly. My salary is just over $100k. I have a good pension plan where the company pays in 5.5% of my salary and my yearly bonus is 13% of my gross pay. The bonus has to be earned so isn't always the full 13%. Answer: You would be owed 24 months severance, which should include all components of compensation.
