Termination of Contract with NoticeThe party who intends to terminate the contract must give notice to the other party in writing.
The notice period to be given depends on what is agreed in the written contract. If there is no written contract, the notice period to be given depends on what the parties have agreed upon verbally.
If there is no such period previously agreed upon, the following shall apply: Length of Service | Notice Period | Less than 26 weeks | 1 day | 26 weeks to less than 2 years | 1 week | 2 years to less than 5 years | 2 weeks | 5 years and above | 4 weeks |
The day on which the notice is given shall be included in the notice period.
The length of notice to be given by an employee (in a resignation) and an employer (in a termination of employment) are the same.
By mutual consent, notice can be waived.
