SUFFICIENT NOTICE TO QTJIT. A .point to be considered in the connection indi- cated by the headline, aavs CasselVs Family Lawyer, is where the master has a right to dismiss the ser- vant upon notice, but no special period of notice was specified when the agreement was entered into. The question often arises whether the notice given is suf- ficient. The answer to the query depends entirely on the answer to another—namely, What is the custom with regard to that class of servants ? A domestic servant is entitled to a month's notice. An ordinary clerk in an office or counting-house j3 only entitled, as a rule, to a week's warning a managing clerk to a month at least. A shop assistant at weekly wages must be content; with a week, though a sbopwalker can claim "a month; and: the manager of a large retail business is, in some trades, I believe, entitled to three months' notice. So it goes on; the rule being that the higher the position of the servant, the more notice he is entitled to. I suppose the reason is that a man in a more important position is likely to have a greater difficulty in procuring another similar situa- j tion than a servant in a lees important position. I' mean, that a shopwalker is not so likelv to obtain another post in the same capacity as is "an ordinary assistant. Therefore, the former ought to have longer notice in order to give him more time to look j about, for a fresh engagement. At the same time, the law as to notice is so hazy, except in the case of ) domestic servants, that I advise both masters and servants always to make an agreement on the subject at the time the contract of hiring and service is entered into.
