Did I quit?

How many employees are covered by the plan? (The owner doesn't count). Also, you are aware that you would be required to pay the full amount of any premium for health insurance, right?

Yes, I know I would need to pay - but I would really like to have some continuity because I have some health issues. Are you saying that is makes more practical sense to just take it as is? My concern is that the premium paid for my insurance is far less than it is on the Covered CA exchange.

There are currently 2 employees on the plan, when I'm gone there will be one. By getting rid of me does the requirement to offer CalCOBRA go away?

I'm probably overthinking the whole thing, but I would like to understand his requirements and my options.

The owner likely isn't considered an "employee" for the purposes of CalCobra.

I know. He's not on the plan. It's me and another employee.

Hang on: are you saying that at the moment he lets me go, he no longer has the requirement to offer CalCOBRA because it's him (the owner) and the remaining employee?

No, I'm not saying that. You weren't clear about who was on the plan.

No, I'm not saying that. You weren't clear about who was on the plan.

Sorry - I did say two employees, though! I should have been more clear and specified that the owner was not one of those people.

Last(?) questions

In regards to a severance agreement:

Non-disparagement: Generally, if something negative is true, can an outsider's question be answered truthfully under a non-disparagement clause?

Confidentiality: Can this extend to State regulating authorities? Ex. if there is a regulation not being adhered to, is it breaking a confidentiality clause to inform a regulation authority?

Should I have this document reviewed? If so, must I be given time to have it reviewed?

Thanks in advance for your help.

Please put this in your original threads. It's annoying to have to jump all over the board to put pieces of the puzzle together.

...I'm seeing it in my original thread.

ETA: I only have this one thread...

I'm sorry, it showed up as the first item on the second page. I missed the fact that it was simply another page of the same thread.

Since it appears that there is also a confidentiality clause in place, this question is irrelevant.

Confidentiality: Can this extend to State regulating authorities? Ex. if there is a regulation not being adhered to, is it breaking a confidentiality clause to inform a regulation authority?

I suspect that this isn't a black and white question.

Should I have this document reviewed?

It's always wise to have legal documents that you don't understand reviewed...and even those that you do understand.

If so, must I be given time to have it reviewed?

Probably not.

 

[LTD93]

Probably not.

Haha. To the point. I appreciate it.

Thank you!
