:'''For example:''' Chui worked in a large store for four months. After Christmas, her employer said, "Today is your last day." She gave Chui one week’s extra pay.
The employer is not required to pay compensation if a worker is given <span class="noglossary">advance</span> written notice of termination equal to the number of weeks for which the employee worker is eligible. This notice must be in writing.
You may be entitled to more than these minimum requirements, because the notice you get must be “reasonable.” Whether you are entitled to the minimum or a larger amount will also depend on your employment contract.
