Contractual obligations - what if the contract only mentions tbe veating period but doea not apeak to specific circumstances of termination?
Here's what you could argue:
- Implied Terms: Even if not explicitly mentioned, some terms may be implied by law, custom, or precedent, potentially including fair treatment in redundancy situations.
- Good Faith: You may argue that the employer should act in good faith and fairness, considering the employee's contributions and circumstances.
