hh.ru lawyer and labor law expert Tatyana Nechaeva told the newspaper: “News”Is it profitable to leave work before the new year and does two weeks of work include holidays?
According to Nechaeva, if an employee decides to leave voluntarily and submits a declaration between December 19 and 23, the two-week working period will end on the New Year holiday, and holidays will also be included in these two weeks.
The lawyer noted that each working day has its own price and varies depending on the month. For example, holidays in January are not paid by themselves, but the cost of the working day is higher, since there are a third of non-working days in the month.
“Quitting a job in January means losing the opportunity to earn more money with fewer hours. This is not the most rational option if the employee has not yet found his new dream job,” said Nechaeva.
According to the expert, if an employee has already found a new place of work, then it will be more profitable to ask to formalize the employment relationship from January 1, so that the employee will be given a full month’s work credit.
Nechaeva mentioned bonuses as another nuance. Often companies have the practice of paying annual bonuses. Often the contract or local law states that if the employee is fired at the time the bonus is paid, the bonus will not be paid. Sometimes the employee himself, or even the company, may not be able to achieve the required goals before the end of the year. From the point of view of judicial practice, this is a controversial situation, but it is better not to create it, but to resign after receiving the bonus.
Before that, a poll on kp.ru showed that only 10% of Russians answeredAll employees at their companies will receive annual bonuses for the New Year.
