From time to time, people move on to pastures fresh. This document is a checklist for how to make this as easy and painless for the dwyler as well as for dwyl.
- Search through all open issues / pull requests assigned to you on github and ensure you've provided some sort of resolution
- Start copying other people in on any client/supplier email chains, so other people know what's going on with projects you're on
- If you're the "account owner" for any SaaS / hosting / etc providers, transfer ownership
to the dwyl
dev
"master account" (ask for details if you don't know). For example...- Heroku
- Google drive
- Amazon AWS
- Return any company hardware - e.g. laptop, iPad
- Return any books to the
library
- Return your set of office keys
- Unsubscribe from email subscriptions you use your dwyl email address for (search your inbox for "unsubscribe")
- Change account details for anything personal you've signed up for with your dwyl address
- Download any files in your Google account that you might need -
your email address will only be kept active for one month after your last day
- Freelancers: note that copies of all of your invoices are sent to your email address, and you might well want to hang onto those for your records
- PAYE dwylers: your payslips might also be sent to your email address, so you should definitely download those - your Xero Payroll login will expire 14 days after your final day
-
Book any holidays as soon as possible
-
Make sure to submit any expense claims in good time, so they can be settled along with your final invoice/payslip
-
Confirm your contact details with dwyl in case we need to send anything on / contact you for some reason
-
Note: your relationship with the pension provider is between you and them only, and this won't change (other than dwyl no longer paying into your pot!)
- Inform clients / suppliers of your departure, or confirm to you that you may do so yourself
- Arrange a friendly exit interview with you
- Ensure your expenses are settled along with your final payslip
- Ensure you're paid for any accrued holiday you've not yet taken
- Ensure any changes to credentials / account details / etc are
propagated
(e.g. updating Google docs) - Revoke your access to any private
github
repositories - Send you your
P45
form to give to your new HR department / for your records
