~~Employees~~ Workers can quit a job any time. It is usual to give your employer notice that you are quitting. Two weeks of notice is considered customary but is not required by the ''Employment Standards Act''.

If you can, giving plenty of notice that you are quitting is a good idea especially if you want your employer to give a good report about you when you apply for another job. This is called giving a ''reference''.

It is important to note that if you quit your job, or if you are fired for misconduct, you will usually not be eligible to receive ~~employment insurance~~ Employment Insurance (EI) benefits.

You can find out more about the laws about working in BC by looking at the ''Guide to the Employment Standards Act''. This guide is online at [http://www.labour.gov.bc.ca/esb/esaguide www.labour.gov.bc.ca/esb/esaguide].
