The following excerpt is from Koos v. A & A Customs Brokers Ltd., 2009 BCSC 563 (CanLII):
In Barrie v. Voith, the plaintiff was 45 years old and had worked for the defendant for 11.5 years. He worked in a specialized and technical area (the sale of paper machine clothing), which made his knowledge and experience less transferable to a new job, but did not have managerial or supervisory responsibilities. The court set the notice period at nine months.
