Last Working Day Calculator

Add your notice period to your resignation date, then subtract any weekends if your role is Monday–Friday. For a two-week (14 calendar day) notice starting Monday June 9, your last day would be Friday June 20 — or Monday June 23 if your employer counts 14 working days rather than calendar days. Always confirm in writing with your manager which interpretation applies.

Yes, in most US states. An employer can accept your resignation immediately and place you on "garden leave" (paid but not working) or terminate you early without notice pay — unless your employment contract specifies otherwise. Check your offer letter for any contractual notice period protections.

If your calculated last day falls on a federal or company holiday, your actual last day is typically the business day before the holiday, unless agreed otherwise with your employer. Always confirm this in writing during the resignation process.

Always check your bonus vesting date before choosing your resignation date. Most annual bonuses are paid to employees who are actively employed on the payout date — resigning the week before a bonus pays out typically means forfeiting it entirely. The same applies to equity cliff vests. Delaying your resignation by even a few days can mean thousands of dollars in retained compensation.

Technically you can request to use accrued PTO during your notice period, but your employer can deny the request if business needs require your attendance. In some cases, your employer may prefer to accept your notice immediately and pay out your remaining PTO rather than have you present for two weeks. Check your company policy and your state's PTO payout laws.
