They explained it more clearly later in the article. 4 weeks for the first year, then 1 week for each additional year of tenure. So a three year employee would get 4+2, which is the same as in Canada. But a 4 year employee would get 4+3 which is less than the statutory (1+1)*4 in Canada.

In Canada, once you get to about 6 years of employment, you can start to expect (1+1+2) * (# years). With a cap of about 80 weeks. You’d bust past the woeful 26 week cap with just 7 years of service.

And, BTW: You would need 23 years of tenure to hit that 26 week cap.

Interesting, that doesn’t even meet the statutory requirements in Canada, which is 1 week severence+ 1 week in lieu of notice per year of employment. One top of that civil case law will generally add another 2 weeks per year of employment for employees who have been with a company for more than 5 years. There are other factors involved in this however. The whole thing generally tops out at about 20 months, too.

Came here to say this. Thank you.
