§ 185g. Indemnity for discharge without just cause—Allowance for compensation and indemnity

The allowance for compensation and progressive indemnity for discharge without good cause provided in § 185a of this title, shall be computed on the basis of the highest number of regular working hours of the employee during any period of thirty (30) consecutive calendar days within the year immediately preceding the discharge. In the cases of discharges based on the reasons set forth in subsections (d), (e), and (f) of § 185b of this title, any sum of money received by workers product of the liquidation due to the closing of business or enterprise programs, shall be considered as special compensation in order to share its profit with its employees. These sums shall in no way affect the calculation or the right to claim compensation and progressive indemnity provided in § 185a of this title.
