Not receiving summer pay between jobs
I am leaving my job at the end of this academic year to work abroad. I am writing my letter of resignation and a bit stuck on what date to put as my last day.
I have spoken to HR and they have said I should put the 31st of July because my new job begins on the 1st of August and this also means I won’t receive any pay in August. I’ve read similar posts from others and they were told that this is not correct and that they should receive full pay in August.
I am a little unsure of what date to put as my last day because my schools inset day is the 21st of August and if I have 31st August as my last day then they would be expecting me to come in and work until the 31st of August.
I have spoken to my union rep who is not sure what I should do, I have emailed someone higher up in my union and am waiting for a response but I thought I’d get some thoughts here too.
Any help is appreciated.
