Information about earlier tremor might induce one to retire (6,9)

I believe the answer is:

golden handshake

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'information' is the definition.
Both the definition and answer are singular nouns.
Maybe they are linked in a way I don't understand?

'about earlier tremor might induce one to retire' is the wordplay.
I cannot really understand how this works, but
'about' could be 'a' (abbreviation in Chambers) and 'a' is found within the answer.
'tremor' could be 'shake' and 'shake' is found in the answer.
'one' could be 'o' (I've seen this in other clues) and 'o' is located in the answer.
This explanation may well be incorrect...

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for golden handshake that I've seen before include "retirement present" , "Reward for retiring" , "Improved P45" , "severance pay" , "this may be hoped for on retirement!" .)

I've seen this clue in The Irish Times.
