Leaving RM

Post by GoingPostal86 »

Hi

Just wondering if some one could tell me how much annual leave pay I am owed from RM as I am leaving next week due to new employment. I've taken no holidays this year so far but have signed for all of them. 9 years employed here.

Cheers!

Roughly 1/6th of your yearly allocation.

You worked April & May ( 2 months ). That essentially 1/6th of the year. Someone else will be able to tell u exactly as I dont want to do the maths.

As the previous poster says, you should be entitled to 1/6 of your annual leave. The full yearly entitlement for 9 years is 23.5 days so you should be entitled to 3.91 days. As leave is based on a five day week, to get a ball park figure in hours divide your contract hours by five and then times it by 3.91. That's how many hours you should expect to be paid.
