===Losing your job===
If you work for an employer for three months or less, he or she can let you go without giving you notice or extra pay. If you work more than three months, the employer must give you notice in writing before your job ends or must pay you ''compensation''. The amount of notice or compensation depends on how long you worked for the employer but is usually no more than 8 weeks.
