11.1 The employment of a monthly worker may be terminated by one month's notice on either side or by the payment or the forfeiture, as the case may be, of one month's wages or any other monies due to the employee under the employment contract where the employee fails to provide to the company notice as set out in this clause.
11.2 Where an employee is over 45 years old and has completed at least two years of continuous service with the employer, the period of notice (or payment in lieu) prescribed in 11.1 shall be increased by one week.
11.3 Such notice may be given on any day of the month to take effect one month after the day on which it is given.
11.4 This shall not affect the right of the Company to dismiss any employee without notice for malingering, inefficiency, neglect of duty or misconduct (in all of which cases wages shall be paid up to the time of dismissal only). The Company shall also have the right to deduct wages for any time the employee cannot usefully be employed because of any strike or through any breakdown of machinery or any stoppage of work for any cause for which the Company cannot be held responsible.
