Severance calculator: benchmark and range from salary and years of service
Enlarge imageOn the left you enter the gross monthly salary and years and months of employment, and the estimate appears on the right. The rule of thumb counts half a gross monthly salary per year of employment, so in the example with €4,200 and twelve years it is €25,200; a lower and an upper limit show the range for settlement negotiations. This gives you an anchor for the conversation with the employer before you sign anything. All figures are a worked example, and the risk box below makes clear that severance pay is a matter of negotiation and that a blocking period (Sperrzeit) for unemployment benefit may apply.
