I have just been offered a new job, the new company are saying we should set up some handover days or I should ‘come in for a visit’. All a bit vague but it’s early days so I don’t want to be pushy. What’s the usual expectation around this when joining a new job? I’ve never been asked to do this before, always just rocked up and got on with it on day one.
Should I be contracted and be paid for this time? That bit hasn’t been mentioned so I assume they see this as voluntary.
I would have to take annual leave to cover the time off from my present role which I am not really keen on doing as I need it to cover the school holidays coming up etc.
But if I say no, is that a bad idea? how helpful is handover time with the previous job holder? I’m used to just being left a file of handover notes at a new company.
