It is important to note that there are a number of claims which cannot be waived in a settlement agreement, for example an employee’s accrued pension rights.
It is also important that any claims that may have been open to an employee to pursue are adequately addressed in the agreement in terms of the settlement figure, ensuring that gives fair value for their role and length of service.
