If you're presented a severance agreement, it may be worth calling in legal counsel to review its terms, and remember that you don't have to respond to it right away. Under the Older Workers Benefit Protection Act, employees over 40 must be given 21 days to consider the offer; after signing, they have seven days to change their decision. If you and at least one other person are laid off in a group termination, you'll have 45 days to consider a severance offer, regardless of age.

Would it be better for us to go as a group or individually?
