Article 23: Resignation/Termination

1. An Employee shall give to ECAA fourteen (14) calendar days’ notice of their desire to terminate their employment. Any notice greater than fourteen (14) calendar days shall not be accepted by ECAA and shall be deemed to be fourteen (14) calendar days. If ECAA determines that an Employee shall not be required to work for their full fourteen (14) days after giving notice of termination, ECAA may require an Employee to be terminated earlier with pay for the balance of the wages of the remaining fourteen (14) days.
2. An Employee who voluntarily leaves the employ of ECAA shall receive the wages and vacation pay to which they are entitled at the regular pay day next following the day on which they terminate their employment, or within seven (7) days of terminating their employment, whichever comes first.
3. An Employee shall be deemed to have terminated their employment when:
   1. they are absent from work without good and proper reason or the approval of ECAA; or

   2. they do not return from layoff as required, or they have been on layoff for a period of time exceeding half their length of service but, in any event, not to exceed a period of one (1) year on layoff.
