Annoni_mouse   10 #1 Posted October 18, 2012 Hi all,  Quick question. I currently work for a company that pays our wages weekly but two weeks in arrears. I'm mulling over job offer from another company, but what I'm wondering is if I were to quit my current job, to my way of thinking, I should get my last pay 'packet' from them two weeks after my last working day, plus any holidays I have accrued.  Does that sound about right?

Cyclone   10 #3 Posted October 18, 2012 The simple answer is that it depends.  They could pay you in advance if your leaving date is known and will be just after a payroll run, they could pay you as a one off on the day you finish (which would include the 2 week arrears that you've worked at that point and holiday) or they could wait until the next normal payroll run and pay you then.  It really depends on how automated the payroll system is and what procedures and policies they have in place for people leaving.

willman   10 #6 Posted October 18, 2012 It depends some of our staff worked two weeks but only recieved one weeks pay. When they quit they will receive an additional weeks pay in their final pay packet.They won't recieve it a week later,usually because on the final pay packet your P45 is produced.
