Settlement Agreements for Employees

Formerly known as Compromise Agreements, Settlement Agreements are written agreements between an Employer and an Employee, in which the Employee agrees to give up certain employment rights, usually in return for a sum of money from the Employer.

They arise in a variety of situations and set out the terms of the termination of employment. To be legally enforceable there are a number of requirements that have to be met, and it is vital that an Employee receives independent legal advice on the nature and effect of the agreement.
