 Afternoon from sunny Portugal. :nana Quick question for you all. I want to hand my notice in a soon as possible. Ideally while I’m on holiday. I was just wondering if it was possible to email it in? Whether that be to hr or direct to manager? :wave
I don't see why not. Email it straight to your line manager though and then ring up to confirm they have the email.

Another one bites the dust!

Just make sure your email makes it clear your intended last working day based on your notice period and that it is a formal notice of resignation. Also, keep a record of everything that is relevant on the RM app regarding final pay, holiday entitlement etc.
On the face of it, shareholder value is the dumbest idea in the world.

It’s called attention seeking.

Obviously, if you are paid weekly, you only have to give a weeks notice!

Paid weekly.
Started 2016. July.
My understanding is 4 weeks notice required?
Is this correct?
Many thanks!!

You're only 1 weeks notice required. Or alternatively 1 week's notice, then an immediate 1 week self cert for work related back pain. :thumbup :chuckle

Right so I only have to give a weeks notice.
I've accrued 3 days leave, so on a 4 day week as I am, only work 1 day. Apparently they won't pay accrued leave, one has to take it.
Been advised by another outside manager.
Is he correct?
Thanks again all
