Is an employee’s termination notice considered acceptable notice by the employer when the employee provides the notice the day before they leave on paid vacation and therefore is unable to work during the notice period? The length of notice provided is correct based on length of service but occurs during their paid vacation. Alberta jurisdiction.
Yes, so long as the employee has given the notice required under ESC Section 58, the fact that the period coincides with a planned vacation is of no consequence. Hope that helps. Glenn
