Have decided not to return to my job - what do I do?

[Enid]

I am not actually due back until Feb, but have decided to do something else instead. I have only received statuatory Mat Pay so have nothing to pay back.

Do I just give them a month's notice in writing? I don't actually have to return do I???

i didn't go back to my job in may after maternity leave ended. all i did was check my contract as to how much notice i had to give, and a month before the year was up handed in my notice. no you don't have to return at all.

what have you decided to do instead? are we allowed to know , i'm a sahm until the new house is straighter then going to go freelance and design from home

have got some copywriting work and also workign on new business venture that I am not allowed to discuss

oooo sounds exciting

not copyrighting for boden again is it??

i was really nervous about having made the decision not to go back but have not regretted it at all. am enjoying life and the children so much more than before.

Just give them notice , now if you need to in order to go on the payroll elsewhere.
