The minimum must be followed, but Common Law has set precedent that it usually isn't sufficient.
Many, many factors that come into play. Stuff like age, seniority, length of service, likelyhood to find similar work. Been told that a consult with a lawyer is never a waste if you are in doubt about the package offered.

Why is that? If I were to be layed off today and only given the minimum it would be an easy negotiation for more, as mentioned earlier Common Law comes into play.Originally posted by spikerS

Minimum is probably ok if you worked less than a year.
But 10 years or more, minimum sucks and is 12 weeks short of the common practice of 2 weeks per year.

I guess that is fair.
because he even stated it was the minimum according to code, so of course it is ok. That was the entire question, not if he could go for more.Originally posted by lasimmon

OK by law: Absolutely.
OK by morals: Not necessarily. Depends on many factors.
Here is a question. How is severance/termination notice handled if an employee is considered Part-Time. My gf has worked for a company for 9 years and is technically considered part-time, even though she still works full time hours. She thinks she will get zilch in the event of a layoff, surely she would still be entitled to some minimum ?

Notwithstanding the provisions of Article 63, Severance Pay, of this Agreement, where the period of continuous employment in respect of which severance benefit is to be paid consists of both full‑ and part‑time employment or varying levels of part‑time employment, the benefit shall be calculated as follows: the period of continuous employment eligible for severance pay shall be established and the part‑time portions shall be consolidated to equivalent full‑time. The equivalent full‑time period in years shall be multiplied by the full‑time weekly pay rate for the appropriate group and level to produce the severance pay benefit.

Nonsense. You've all got slanty eyes, play Starcraft, speak Chinese and eat nothing but sushi and ginger beef.
DON'T TRY AND CONVINCE ME OTHERWISE
My understanding of the info posted on your link is that it applies only to public service ie government jobs and that is not what is in place for the private sector.Originally posted by drtoohotty1

If you go to the following pdf link from the government of Alberta page it will be relevant if you are working in the private sector...

As always, it also depends on whether the concerned job falls under provincial or federal labour code jurisdictions.
Will fuck off, again.

As always, if you are laid off its worth having an employment lawyer look over any documentation. I'm assuming if she has some form of documentation tracking her hours and its equivalent to full time I'm sure a lawyer could make the case for her if she feels its unfair compensation.Originally posted by speedog
