When terminating employment during a probationary period, a one week notice applies if the length of service is longer than one month.
In case of indefinite contracts which extend beyond the probation period, notice has to be given prior to the termination of employment. Notice is to be given either by the employee, or by the employer in cases of redundancy. Notice is calculated on the employee’s continuous length of service, as follows:
For more than one month but not more than six months-one week;
For more than six months but not more than two years-two weeks;
For more than two years but not more than four years-four weeks;
For more than four years but not more than seven years-eight weeks;
For more than seven years, an additional 1 week for every subsequent year of service or part thereof up to a maximum of twelve weeks;
For such longer periods as may be agreed by the employer and employee in the case of technical, administrative, executive or managerial posts
The established notice period cannot be extended.
