    ‘The Sun reports Monaco Solicitors’ book for employees on negotiating exit packages

    ‘Exit strategy employment lawyer Alex Monaco gives his top tips on how to negotiate a fair exit package if you are forced out of a job

    There’s plenty you can do to ensure you get the best deal if you’re
    forced out of a job:

    • DON’T RESIGN IMMEDIATELY: If you do, you lose an important bargaining chip
      in negotiating a better settlement agreement.
    • DON’T PLAY TOO NICELY: A settlement is not what you ought to get, it’s what
      they owe you for your workplace mistreatment and for forcing you out of your job.
    • DON’T BURN YOUR BRIDGES: You don’t have to hide your feelings but don’t come
      across as too angry as you must remain professional at all times.
    • OFFER SOMETHING BACK: Suggest a confidentiality clause or a smooth handover
      to your successor.
    • BE AWARE OF YOUR THREE-MONTH DEADLINE: Don’t let your negotiations push you
      over the strict three-month time limit for tribunal claims.
