Article 8.6 End of an employment contract due to death 1 The death of the employee ends the employment contract. From the day after the death of the employee, no further salary is paid. 2 On the death of an employee, the surviving partner will as soon as possible be paid a lump sum equal to the monthly salary referred to in article 8.3, paragraph 6. In the absence of a surviving partner, the lump sum will be paid to the dependent children of the deceased. 3 If the deceased has no surviving partner or dependent children, the lump sum referred to in paragraph 2 may be used in whole or part to cover the costs of the employee’s final illness and funeral expenses, if the estate of the deceased is insufficient for these purposes.
