glassdoorLayoffs are tough on the spirit. While you may be tempted to sign and move on, you might be leaving what’s rightfully yours on the table. Here’s advice from an attorney on how to navigate being laid off—strategically: 1. Don’t sign. Gather information. You don’t have to sign immediately. Ask to take the documents home to review, and confirm the deadline for a response. 2. Clarify your compensation and access. Ask for details regarding your unused PTO, final paychecks, and access to benefits. Find out when your access to company devices will be cut off, and how to retrieve any personal information stored on those devices. 3. If the layoff feels suspicious, talk to a lawyer. Laid off immediately after a medical leave, pregnancy announcement, or workplace complaint? Trust your instincts and consult an employment attorney before signing anything. 4. Check for your unemployment eligibility. Rules vary by state. You may be eligible. And when you’re ready to plan your next move, we’re here to help. From curated job matches to a professional community to lean on for support, we got you. #Layoffs #Corporate #JobSearch #HowTo
