    Well whether the week is Mon-Fri or Fri-Thurs, surely a week is just 5 days (or whatever their working week is (which is 5 days)).

    Though i suppose the plot thickens - i just found out she only works Thurs & Fri. No idea how or if this changes anything.

    Still, i've got the answer enough to satisfy me if i was ever in this position.

    If the employer is saying Monday April 22nd is the final day. Then this would be a month notice.

    Friday 19th would be the last day on a 4 weeks notice.

    Your wife needs to look at her contract to see if it says 4 weeks or 1 month notice.
    Bad luck breeds bad luck.

    Damn I'm doomed.
  • Best not tell my current employer, this seems to mean I'm leaving a day early :)
    I work for a leading insurance company as an Insurance Advisor dealing with Commercial Insurance. Feel free to ask me any questions but please do not take what I say as correct advice at all times, as every insurance company works differently to others.

    Thanks.

    Though it's not my wife that's leaving.
