Employment Deed of Release
About this template
An employment deed of release that fully and finally settles claims between an employer and a departing employee. Covers the release of claims, consideration (monetary or otherwise), confidentiality, an employment reference, optional job-placement assistance and non-disparagement — adapting to a company or individual employer and to redundancy.
