Can an employer “contract out”, i.e., include a term in the employment contract that limits the notice to be given upon termination, of a provincial employment statute?
An employer can include a term in the employment contract that limits the notice to be given upon termination of employment to the minimum required by the provincial employment statute. However, this statutory minimum cannot be further reduced by contract (i.e., one cannot “contract out” of the statute).
