Hi,

If you give someone one month's notice, you are in effect dismissing them.

In other words, is it an indirect and smart way to refuse someone a continuous hire?
Am I right?

Hi,

The period of notice is usually agreed between employer and employee. If the employee gives the period of notice previously agreed, it means that they say they are leaving. If the employer gives the notice, it means the employee is dismissed - will no longer be employed.
