Add Comment Question: Yesterday I was given a two week notice from my employer. On the letter it states that "this decision is no way reflects on your performance as it has been very good. You made it clear to both Trevor and myself that you were not prepared to stay longer than one year with ******* (name of the company) and as an organization we need to ensure that we invest our training and energy on those that are committed to the organization long term." I asked my supervisor if on paper work I was terminated or laid off. He is almost 100% sure it was a termination. Now that I'll be out of a job soon, I am looking into my plan B options. One of them is unemployment insurance. Will I be illegible for it or no? Also I received my notice on July 13th and my last date of employment is on July 24th. It's technically only 11 days notice. Is that legal? Thank you for your help. Answer: Hi Anna. Thank you for your question. Have you considered writing to your supervisor and clarifying that you are prepared to stay longer than one year and that it was never your intention to leave? In order to assess whether or not you are entitled to more than 2 weeks, I would need to more about your position, length of service, existence of any employment contract, etc. However, it is very possible that you could be entitled to more. With respect to employment insurance, your eligibility will depend on how your Record of Employment is characterized and how much money you earned this year.
