Frequently asked questions
Am I required to give notice?
Yes, except for resignation for just cause (Art. 2119 c.c., for example unpaid wages or harassment) or during the trial period. The days depend on the CCNL, your level, and your length of service.
What happens if I don’t give notice?
The employer can withhold an indemnity equivalent to the wages you would have earned during those days. It is deducted from your TFR and final payslip.
Are notice days calendar days or working days?
By default they are calendar days: Saturdays, Sundays and public holidays count. Some CCNLs prescribe working days for specific levels (the calculator flags this case when it applies).
Do unused holidays count toward notice?
No. Holidays taken during notice do not stop the period from running. Unused holidays are paid out in the final payslip and do not shorten the notice days.
Can I resign while on sick leave?
Yes, illness does not prevent you from resigning. Most CCNLs suspend the notice period while the illness lasts and resume it on recovery, so check your contract: the calculator does not account for absences.
What changes during the trial period?
During the trial period either party can terminate without notice and without giving reasons (Art. 2096 c.c.). The calculator treats this as a separate case.
