After termination of employment, the process for 401k vesting typically involves determining how much of the employer-contributed funds the employee is entitled to keep based on the vesting schedule. If the employee is fully vested, they can keep the entire amount. If not fully vested, they may only keep a portion of the employer-contributed funds based on the vesting schedule.
