    ah ok.
    If it was longer than 7, they'd also have to pay him pro-rata LongService Leave, but as its less that wont apply

    As long as Ad gives notice according to award, he'll get paid out his annual leave. Unfortunately sick leave is a 'just in case', not an entitlement, so that won't be paid out - which is why so many people are sick a lot just before they resign

    DH just put in his 1 weeks notice resignation last Friday. They said he'll get paid out his 3 weeks holidays if he stays the full week. I think if they stay at work the full amount they have to give notice for (whether its 1 week or 2 weeks etc) then they must pay you the amount. Sick leave no they dont get it, which is a pitty, but at least they get something.

    Thanks ladies!!!!!

    I have a feeling he will put in his notice today. A few of the jobs he put in for last week are looking very promising!!!

    PB, if you think they might not give him his holiday pay, then he could apply for 3 weeks leave and then when he gets his leave money on the day he goes on leave put in his resignation. But i guess that would mean hanging around a bit longer. hope it works out for you.
