I received notice today that I would be terminated on July 3rd and would be paid up until that day. That is roughly 4 weeks. I have seen references that the amount of payment in lieu of notice is actually 8 weeks. (I have 33 years of service. I am a regular part time employee. In other words I receive the benefits of a full time employee but at a rate of 60%) Which is correct? - 4 weeks or 8 weeks)? Thank-you

Neither is correct. You could be owed as much as 24 months pay (less the 4 weeks notice that you received). It is important that you call me as soon as possible to discuss. To get a more accurate assessment of what you are owed, visit the Severance Calculator: www.severancepaycalculator.com .
