Add Comment Question: I have been terminated due to the company reducing its business activities. I have been employed there for 28 years, receiving lieu of notice but no severance. Is there any point in going after severance when the company has a payroll less than 2.5Million? Answer: Yes, you are entitled to severance pay even though the payroll is less than $2.5 million. In fact, given your 28 years of service, you could be entitled to as much as 24 months' severance pay.
