My employer just terminated me. They offered me 4 weeks of severance including the statutory amount in return they want me to sign a release. I have to sign this release by May 4. The thing is, I'm worried what they're going to put on the ROE. I truly feel, though I was critical of the quality of the product we were producing, that I didn't say anything that warranted termination. But if I sign this, can they say that it was my fault and then I'd have no recourse?
