I am leaving NZ on the 1st of August. I need to provide 3 months notice in my job. I will have 10 days leave built up by the time I leave. I start my new job abroad on the 13th of August. I want to use my 10 days leave as the last 10 days of my work, (30th July to 10th August) with the 10th August being my last official day. Am I allowed to do this or is this at the employers discretion? It has a big impact on when I hand in my notice as if they refuse this I would have to work up to the 10th to work out my 3 months notice. The time is coming close for me to hand in my notice if I have to end it on the 27th July.
