This is a rough estimate, not legal advice. Termination entitlements depend on your employment contract, the reason for termination, your age and role, and the specific Ontario employment standards rules. Consult an employment lawyer for your situation.
ASSUMPTIONS — Estimates the statutory (ESA) minimum at roughly one week of pay per year of service — a common rule of thumb; actual provincial minimums differ and are usually capped. The common-law range (~3–4 weeks per year, up to about 24 months) applies to reasonable-notice wrongful-dismissal claims and can be much higher than the statutory minimum. Figures are estimates only; actual entitlement depends on your situation and region. Not legal advice.
