Add Comment Question: Hello, We are looking to terminate an employee that is not meeting company requirements. Their age is 52yrs have been employed just over 5months. Wondering how much Common Law notice is to be paid out along with the 1 week ESA payout. This is something new for us so we want to make sure we payout the correct amount. Answer: The amount of termination pay owed to an employee depends on a number of factors including age, length of service, salary, position, the terms of any employment agreement etc. Please contact me at fiona.martyn@stlawyers.ca to schedule a consultation so that we can review the file together and ensure the termination is handled appropriately.
