Only available to Australian businesses using Single Touch Payroll reporting

An employment termination payment (ETP) is a lump sum payment made to an employee because their employment has finished.

ETP includes payments for unused rostered days off, payments in lieu of notice, a gratuity or 'golden handshake', and more. For a full list of payments that are and are not ETPs, see the ATO website.
