Severance Benefits
If you are involuntarily separated from covered employment, you may be eligible for severance benefits administered by VRS. An involuntary separation is a layoff because of a budget reduction, agency reorganization, workforce downsizing or other cause not related to job performance or misconduct. If you voluntarily leave or retire from your position, you are not eligible for severance benefits.
For teachers, other school employees (cafeteria workers, bus drivers and maintenance workers) and political subdivision employees whose employers have elected to participate in the Transitional Benefits Program.
