A notice period is the defined span of time between a resignation or termination and an employee's last day of work. This guide covers how notice periods work, what the law requires, and how to manage them effectively.
What Is a Notice Period?
A notice period is the formal gap between when someone announces their intention to leave (or is notified of termination) and when their employment officially ends. Common lengths include two weeks, 30 days, 60 days, and 90 days, depending on the role, seniority, applicable law, and what’s been agreed to in writing.

Payroll
Payroll is the process of compensating employees for their work, covering everything from calculating wages and withholding taxes to distributing pay and filing payroll tax returns. A well-run payroll system helps to pay employees accurately and on time, support the business’ efforts to comply with federal and state wage and hour obligations, and give owners a clear accounting of one of their largest operating costs.
