Apart from employees transferring to JLL and those transferring internally within Amentum, all other employees who separate after working through to the contract end date, will be eligible for severance.
Severance agreements will be delivered to those eligible within the last week prior to the contract end date. Employees electing to accept the severance offer must sign and return the severance agreements on, or after, the contract end date. See Amentum’s Severance Payment Table below:

Once Amentum receives the employee signed copy of their severance agreement, there is a legally required 7-day waiting period before Amentum can execute a severance agreement. After Amentum receives the signed agreement, and executes (signs) the agreement, the lump sum severance amount detailed in the agreement will be paid out in a lump sum within 1-2 pay periods after the agreement is executed. Delivery time depends upon timing with respect to Amentum’s bi-weekly payroll processing schedule.
Note – Severance agreement payouts are not subject to final paycheck timeframe deliver laws under various state laws.

Please coordinate with your supervisor in advance of time off to give your supervisor and manager enough time to plan on providing Intel with the services and support they require of Amentum, up until the contract closeout. The use of unaccrued PTO is not authorized.
