Putting in my notice (How long?)

Post by Tog »

I'm away from home on holiday at the minute, but may have the chance of getting my old job back soon and I was wondering if anyone knows how much notice I would have to give, if I decide to leave RM. I have 4yrs service and I am part time 20hrs. Thanks in advance.

If you're paid weekly, one week.

Yeah 1 week and you are entitled to [about] 23 days holiday so about 0.44 days per week. We are in week 20 now so unless you've had them you are entitled to 8 days leave which you may take before you quit. If you've had more or less they should adjust your wages to account for it.
