Termination Pay explained in plain English for employees comparing final pay, notice, payment in lieu, vacation, and severance terms.
Termination pay
A jurisdiction-specific term that can mean pay instead of statutory notice, especially in Ontario employment standards context.

Example: An Ontario employee may need to distinguish final wages, vacation pay, termination pay, and severance pay in HR questions.
