Resignation and holidays

[taranglamhaa 1]

Hello everyone,

 

I have tried to find some forum but i couldnt find it. So, starting new topic. Hopefully, Someone have answer for me.

 

I have received job offer from a company in Frankfurt. I will be starting in May 2023. In my old job, after resignation notice period is 6 weeks. I will give my resignation in end of february.

 

Before i had received new job offer, earlier this year i had applied for 15 days holidays at my old job. Can i still take that holidays at old job or i have cancel it? I am not 100% sure. Can anybody help me with this?

So far i have understood, 2.5 days are holidays for eachmonth. So, if i want to take 15 days holidays then i have to work  till June,2023. Is it correct?

If you receive 30 days holiday per year then it's 2.5 days per month so unless you can agree something with your current employer you wouldn't be able to take 15 days holiday and finish at the end of April.

 

Another option is to speak to your current employer and see if you can take some time off unpaid before you finish or somehow reduce the notice period and finish early so you would have some time off before starting your new job.
