What is the maximum number of weeks of notice under the standard rule of one week per year (up to eight years)?

• A. 8 weeks
• B. 4 weeks
• C. 6 weeks
• D. 12 weeks

Answer: (A)

Under this rule, notice grows with years of service at roughly one week per year, but there’s a cap. Since it’s stated as up to eight years, the greatest notice you’d owe is eight weeks. So someone with eight or more years of service would receive eight weeks, while fewer years yield fewer weeks proportionally. The other numbers don’t reflect the cap and thus don’t represent the maximum under this standard rule.
