Add Comment Question: in my employment contract it states I need to provide 2 weeks notice if giving my resignation. I've only been with the company for 4 months and i know the alberta employment standards states 1 week for more than 90 days and less then 2 years. Can i still give 1 week notice or does it have to be 2 since it's in my employment contract. Answer: If the Code mandates that you need to provide 1 week notice, then that is all you need to do; you don't have to follow the contract.
