9. Early retirement program

 

During the first quarter of fiscal 2019, we offered a voluntary early retirement package to certain eligible employees of the Company. These employees are to receive pay equal to one-half their current salary plus benefits over a period of one year from the final day of each individual’s active employment. Accordingly, we recognized a charge of $835 during the quarter ended March 2, 2019. The unpaid balance of the obligation at February 29, 2020 and November 30, 2019 of $148 and $374, respectively, is included in other current liabilities and accrued expenses in our condensed consolidated balance sheets.
