Method of notice does matter. ie. verbal wouldn't count.
A little update: They've asked me to work an extra day but before the two week period ends. The manager said she'd have no problem giving me a ROE but would have to check on the accountant on severance.
Few hours later she tells me no go on both. No ROE because I'm self-contracted. I did start my position by invoicing them monthly but the last little while I've been submitting timsheets.
RC4110 - Employee or Self-employed?
Termination without just cause. OK fine. Not being courteous or professional about it, annoying but I will accept what's the law. Now being unfair and not providing proper documentation required by law, yep kicking me while i'm down. |
If you were a contractor there is no such thing as severance. I'm a contractor and I submit an invoice to the company that uses me. They could tell me they no longer need my services and that would be it. It doesn't matter if you decided to use a time sheet instead of an invoice as a way of tracking your hours. Consider it nice of them for giving you notice and offering you a chance to pick up a few more hours before they no longer need your services. If you plan on contracting more often in the future you may want to talk to an accountant as it seems you may not be prepared and it would suck for the CRA to go after you later down the road.
