Summary/Abstract: The article undertakes an analysis of retirement and disability severance pay as a common benefit available to employees in connection with the termination of their professional activity. This severance pay, regulated by Article 921 of the Labor Code, is a one‑time benefit of a social nature, aimed at facilitating the employee’s adaptation to a new life situation. The article discusses the historical legal background of the severance payment, its evolution and various interpretations of the current legislation, including the issue of the one‑time nature of the benefit and the possibility of its reacquisition in the event of reemployment. Particular attention was paid to the analysis of the case law of the Supreme Court, whose statements often leave a significant deficiency in the arguments presented.
