Leaving section

[fmondora]

By the agreement, you have a grace period specified by law. If you agree and terminate before that specific time, you will be required to work on an opensource project for the remaining time since the end of the year.
If you're not committing and reporting on the opensource or social project, mondora will ask you to refund this. This money will be used for opensource projects.

I think EOY is too much generic, maybe it's better to specify a more accurate time frame?

[mmondora]

Agree, EOY is to soft. 20 full days of opensource works having the evidence of commits and the improvement of the opensource code/projects. The refound is calculate as "days of missing work on opensource" * "italian market daily rate".

I'd like also to add:
You have to communicate in a crystal clear message to all your collegues ( including managers, product owner, directors ) the last workin day in mondora.

[rampazzof]

I suggest a fixed or proportionate (maybe based on the days left until the agreed date) time

[fumaluca]

I think is not always possible to leave before the end, so as for the parachute we need a poll to be part of this "project".
Reaching the "quorum" only if you end up your work in a good and professional way.

At the moment, the handbook states:
"After the trial period, termination notice has to be given in writing, both by you and by mondora, following the termination notice periods outlined in the C.C.N.L. METALMECCANICI, which vary according to your professional level and period of work. The termination notice period starts from the middle or end of each month. If one party terminates the contract without following the termination notice period rules correctly, or without giving notice, that party will have to pay for the remainder of the termination time."

I would add Francesco's paragraph here, in these words:
If you wish to leave earlier than your termination notice time and not pay for the missing days, you can request to work on an open source project for the remaining notice days, provided that the majority of the company has voted in favour of this option for you. You will be required to provide evidence of commits and improvements to the opensource code/projects you are working on during this time.
If you do not commit and report on the open source project, mondora will ask for a monetary refund, which will be used to fund company opensource projects. The refund amount will be calculated as "days of missing work on opensource" * "italian market daily rate".

As for the time frame, how about a commitment of 1 day per week, for a total of the missing days of notice that the person should have worked by contract? For 10 missing days, this would be 10 weeks from the last day of work in the company. Also, are we sure the company can do this, from a legal perspective?

[mattiabaruffi]

Imho the time to work on an opensource project could be calculated on a fixed basis … 2 or 3 days/month?
For example, if the employee ends in October (and he terminate 30 days before grace period deadline) it’s very difficult to spend 15 days/month in opensource project...
