Termination pay

A jurisdiction-specific term that can mean pay instead of statutory notice, especially in Ontario employment standards context.

What it is not: It is not the same as severance pay and should not be treated as a universal resignation payout.

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