Article 14: Cancellation of Contract

In force

In simple words

Either the employer or the apprentice can end an apprenticeship contract with at least 7 days’ notice. The employer can end it if the apprentice breaks the contract or reports show he isn’t able to learn.

Official text of Article 14
An employer may cancel the apprenticeship contract if the apprentice violates his assigned duties under the contract or if it is evident from the periodic reports prepared on him that he is not ready to learn. Likewise, the apprentice may also terminate his contract, provided that the party who is willing to terminate the contract shall give notice to the other party of this desire at least seven days in advance.
