Where the dismissal is not for serious misconduct, the employee is entitled :
1° If he has been with the same employer for less than six months, to a notice period, the duration of which is determined by law, the collective labour agreement or, failing that, by local and professional practice;
2° If the employee has been with the same employer for between six months and less than two years, one month’s notice;
3° If he has been with the same employer for at least two years, two months’ notice.
However, the provisions of 2° and 3° only apply if the law, the collective labour agreement, the employment contract or customary practice do not provide for a more favourable notice period or length of service condition for the employee.
