Work notice and Job advert question

[Gtiracer]

Two questions really;

My Work contract doesn't state the amount of notice period required to quit and as far as i can see, government guidelines state it should just be a reaosnable amount. Well, what is a reasonable amount for 3 1/2 years service at a company? Would 1 month suffice?


Other question is regarding job vacancies, I have see a a post advertising cover for 1 year to cover maternity leave. Is it standard practice for these type of companies to just let you go immediatly when the placement finishes. Or is it customary that they might find you a different role within the company? I have never applied for a job like that so I'm not sure if it is common place or not

Thanks

What's the type of role?
Not in the contract you signed?
Have you asked your HR team?

likely it may be 1 month however

I work in freight. No it's not in my contract anywhere.

HR team, pfffff *laughs. It's a smallish company. Anything I ask like that would be handled by my director which would prompt questions I don't want asked to me right now
