Average notice period (and payment to employer if broken)

As a follow question: I have a three month notice period but my employer only has to give me one month. Is this something I could use to say that I should also only need to give one months notice?
 
Hi Wheeler, I think you need to reread the advice given to me. In essence, no, you can't - if you break it, there's always the chance that new employer will ask old employer what the Notice period was.

Can you clarify if you are being let go with one months notice or if this is just a question about your contract?

It's a general question. But it has been done - people have been let go with one months notice but the expectations of those same people would have been to give 3 months notice. I want to leave but the three months notice is putting me off trying.
 
Having a 3 month clause in a contract is generally a sign of seniority.

Any prospective employer should be willing to wait.
