Consequences of resignation in a limited employment contract
Q: Hello, I am here on a limited contract of 2 years and I`m not interested in continuing my employment. My contract states that I`m liable for any "legal fees" for terminating the contract early. I`m still within my three-month probation period and I am wondering about a couple of things. Is there a penalty for leaving early? Do I have to give the standard 30-day notice? Am I liable for my own airfare home? Any other information you think would be helpful would also be greatly appreciated.Aug 22, 2018
