Anyone know how much notice I need to give when quitting my job ?

Been working at this particular place for 18 months.

Thanks in advance for help

Er - check your contract?!

The "standard" is one month, but check your contract, as there could be a specific clause in there to change that...

As above depends on what was in your contract some want 1 week other's can ask for a month.

Depends on how often you are paid.... Paid monthly is usually one month's notice. Paid weekly is usually one week's notice.

If your stupid like me and haven't got a contract then be prepared to be entered raw

This should help if you have the time to read it:

Thank guys (and gals)

Nath

Has it helped though?

I know one thing for sure. I'll never start another job without a contract in writing stating everything. I've been totally butt fucked with my current job over sick pay, holiday entitlement, etc ...A heavy lesson to be learnt! ..and too late to negoitiate afterwards!

Nath,

I see your point. I was just worried it would be longer than 1 month.


I will take your advice in the future though - Thanks.

Its proper shit mate even with a contract - I ended up arguing with the H/R depart of Mastercare and I had a contract I should have taken the course in dodging falling fridge freezers

after all the shit you will go through it will leave you hard to employ due to the claim your normally asked on the application form if you've ever claimed from an employer........


Cheers

MAD YUM,

I would love to say as it is so radically different from what I have done or
what am doing now as it is the last thing anyone would guess.
Will explain one day but I cant risk others spoiling it for me at the moment.

Besides, the p*ss taking would be unbearable
