Will my birth control pills work immediately after the week in between packs?

I just started takin Yasmin for the first time. My doctor told me it takes a month to work. But right after that month ends I'm to wait a week before starting a new pack. My question is: how long after I start the second pack will it be safe? Immediately after I start it even though I would have just gone a week without it.?
