With regard to whether or not you are entitled to severance pay, I am not in a position to answer that. I do not know where you are and even if I did, I am not an expert on labor laws. My advice would be for you to consult a lawyer and get proper legal advice.

                    [Summary] => 



The Filipino employees of Mirant Philippines Corp. are now asking their US-based parent company to pay their severance package to provide the new management taking over the local unit an option to terminate or rehire employees.


The employees made this move after Mirant management argued that some of their workers have asked the Labor Department to compel the company to pay them their separation pay and still keep them employed.
