Paid vacation

Morning,

I am mostly a lurker but I've posted here a few times.  For those who replied to my previous posts on this particular board, I thank you again.  I was just offerred a new job.  It is considered a lateral move since my salary won't be increasing that much but I am still gaining so much more than what I have in my current job.

Way better benefits, pension and 401K and growth opportunity. I am excited but more anxious than anything else.

I have a question though, for those who are familiar with HR regulations.  I have two weeks vacation left, aren't they supposed to pay me for that?  I am asking this question because the receptionist here is also leaving. Her Supervisor told her from what she knows if you're leaving, you lose your vacation and are not paid out for it which I don't believe is true.  Any clue?

Re: Paid vacation

  • Correct me if I'm wrong but I think every company is different. This is the first job that I've had PTO at and if I were to quit I get paid for my vacation that is built up. But I don't think every company HAS to do that. And if they don't pay you out I'm not sure if you can say "well my last week will be vacation time" that way they can pay you for it.
  • Thank you Lindsay.  The problem with taking the last week as vacation time is that I can't.  My last day was supposed to be next week Friday. My boss actually asked if I could extend it by two days because he will be on vacation next week.  The controller is also on vacation next week.  They actually needed more time so I know leaving early is not an option.

  • PP are correct, you need to check your company policy, unfortunately no PTO standards exist.

    Congrats on the new job!

  • I would check your company policy.

    We are going to PTO time next year and if we leave we will get paid for any PTO time that we have. If I left right now I wouldn't get paid for any of my vacation or sick time.

  • Aside from company policy, there are also state laws to take into consideration.  Some states require it, others don't.

    This is true. Some states require your company pays out any accrued or unused vacation or PTO.  That is not true of sick time.
