Notice Periods - HR on leave

Undervalued

People are in charge... and contactable via e-mail.
However my contract states "A notice required to be given under this agreement shall not be validly given if sent by e-mail"

I might add, this company is small; very small. Hence this unusual predicament!

Well then send an e-mail as a courtesy to advise them that you have left a signed notice on their desk.

Maybe also take a date stamped photo with your phone of the envelope lying on the desk.

I wouldn't give my notice to HR at all, I'd give it to my line manager and leave them to deal with the admin.

Thanks Agrinnall,

My line manager is on the same said holiday as everyone else!

I doubt it matters if the new HR person 'accepts' your notice because as far as I know as long as you serve it correctly it doesn't need any acceptance. So I would hand it to the new HR person and email your line manager
