British Columbia, Canada


The following excerpt is from Strauss v. Albrico, 2007 BCSC 197 (CanLII):

Lowry J. states in Peterson v. Wilson Logistics, 2003 BCSC 215 at para. 14: One month of notice for each year of employment is a sound starting point but is no more than a guideline. Rather, notice should be determined by considering the four Bardal factors in the context of each case.
