Good Luck, YMMV

The Code requires the employee to give one week’s written notice if the employee has been employed by the employer for more than 3 months but less than 2 years, and two weeks’ written notice if the employee has been employed by the employer for 2 years or more.
An employee does not have to give notice if:
• there is an established custom or practice in the industry respecting termination of
employment;
• the employee terminates employment because the employee’s personal health or safety
would be in danger if the employee continued to be employed by the employer;
• the contract of employment is or has become impossible for the employee to perform
because of unforeseeable or unpreventable causes beyond the control of the employee;
• the employee has been employed by the employer for 3 months or less;
• the employee is temporarily laid off;
• the employee is laid off after refusing an offer by the employer of reasonable alternative
work;
• the employee is not provided with work by the employer by reason of a strike or lockout
occurring at the employee’s place of employment;
• the employee is employed under an agreement by which the employee may elect either to
work or not to work for a temporary period when requested to work by the employer; or
• the employee terminates the employment because of a reduction in wage rate, overtime
rate, vacation pay, general holiday pay or termination pay.
