I would’ve said the 13th as that’s the date you would be officially returning or even a week before. Are you still being paid maternity by them?x

@Julia thank you! No, I was paid SMP for 9 months and these last 3 months are unpaid

@Julia original return date was 7th of November but since I am meant to get paid now for annual leave that left me with a return date of 13th December. Can they refuse to pay my annual leave since I’m not returning?

I don’t know if they can refuse it but they can ask for you to pay it back but it’s different in every company x

@Julia pay my mat pay back or the holidays?

Holidays but every company is different x

When do your holidays renew? For example I got my new holiday entitlement on the 1st of January every year

@Kaitlyn on the 1st of January we get 10 days and then another 15 on the 1st of July

That's such a weird way of doing it 😂 you should have "worked" enough to be entitled to it all even though you were on mat leave. I'd just put your last day as the 13th and they'll let you know if you owe anything and take it out of your last wage

@@KaitlynI know it’s really weird. I’m very confused now as I never heard of having to pay holidays back? Or can they refuse to pay them since I’m not returning? I made another post where I explained my original plan was to get paid for my holidays and only then resign but that way I wouldn’t be giving them enough notice… I’m getting really anxious now 🤐

So you'd only pay back anything you weren't entitled to, for example if I got 30 days worth of holidays each year in January, took all 30 days in March then left in July I wouldn't have worked enough hours/days to be entitled to those 30 days so I'd owe them 15 days back. If that makes sense? They won't/can't refuse to pay them because you are still employed until the 13th December. In all honesty I'd just put my last day as the 13th December, by the sounds of it IF you owe anything it's only going to be like 5 days and they'd just take it out of your last paycheck in December. You won't directly need to pay them anything Think I commented on your last post actually 😂 x

If you trust your HR you could actually reach out and ask their advice on all of this before you submit your resignation. They may even be grateful to hear about it a little sooner so they can plan for your replacement if necessary
