Common use of Application and Notice Clause in Contracts

Application and Notice. The salaried employee must submit a written application to the employer for a part-time pension six calendar months prior to the date the part-time pension is to take effect. The application must clearly state the applicable level of employment. At the same time an application is submitted to the employer, the salaried employee must give notice to the salaried employees’ local representative at the company. Not later than two months after the employer has received the application, the employer must provide the salaried employee and the salaried employees’ local representative at the company with a response stating whether or not the application has been granted, unless an extension period has been agreed with the salaried employee. Failure to provide a timely response constitutes a breach of an administrative regulation and, consequently, does not result in an application being deemed granted. If the application is not granted at a later date, where applicable the employer must pay the relevant salaried employee SEK 2,0001 for breaching the administrative regulation. The employer may reject an application for a part-time pension if, on an objective assessment, granting the application would cause considerable disruption to the employer’s business.
