If I left my current job and have 26 paid time off days left do they pay me for that?

It ALL depends on their policy.  You should have received a copy of the policies and procedures manual when you first started.  Some PTO is accrued and payable, some is not.  AND, I would not recommend taking your days off and then quitting, employers frown on that and you might burn a bridge or the chance of a good referral when you need it!!

That may be unique to California (their kinda weird out there compared to the rest of the country any how) Federal wage and hour laws require (in most cases) that time and one half be payed for any more than 8 hours in any one day and over 40 hours in any week. Their are no requirements for an employer to pay double time, triple time etc. unless it is a part of some kind of contract (union or other wise) so you will have to check with your state's wage and hour board.

As long as you talk to your boss beforehand, it's not a big deal since you have a decent excuse.  Your paycheck on that last day won't be affected because usually paychecks are for the previous 2 weeks.  Your final paycheck will be missing that last day since you didn't show up unless you can argue that it was a vacation day or whatever.\n\nIf you just leave, you might not get a good reference from your former company.   You might also want to rearrange your exit interview for your final day that you will be there so that you leave on relatively good terms.

My cousin told them he was quitting (2 weeks notice) and they let him go that second, they did however pay him for the next two weeks! They were so afraid he would sabotage the business those last two weeks they figured it was better to just pay up and cut their losses!!!\nHowever it doesnt always end well. You have the right to your last two weeks of pay and as far as a reference goes they can NOT say anything horrible about you (unless its true!!) because you can SUE them! All they can tell a potential employer is dates of employment, title, pay, and responsibilities.

Sorry but you are in breach of your contract (assuming it says you give a months notice) unless by mutual agreement.\n\nIt is not clear if they are only paying you for the final 1 week or making a deduction over and above that.  If you only worked 1 week and that is what they paid you for then that is reasonable.  \n\nIf they are making a higher deduction then this is probably inappropriate and you could most likely make a successful claim against them - unfortunately this is something that requires you to get specific legal advice including sight of your contract of employment.  Be aware though they could counterclaim for breach of contract!\n\nHope this helps

Every state's laws are different; and, every company's policies are different. In most cases if you are terminated you are entitled to receive the number of hours of accrued vacation. This must be paid with your final paycheck.

Check with a lawyer for Colorado-specific laws, but no, it should not be legal. Your paycheck is money you earned for things you ALREADY did, since it's issued after every two weeks (or however long, point being, its after the hours you worked). Therefore, they have no right to not pay you for what you already did.

If you have a paycheck which is supposed to be for (say) Sept.01 - Sept.15, and it's for (say) 60hrs when you really worked 80 hrs, then you say that the last 20hrs you worked were unpaid.\n\nEven better -- show a list of all the hours you were paid for (say) 3months, and all the hours you worked for 3months.  Attach this to the form, and on the form itself just write "85 unpaid hours -- see attached".

Depending on when they started, you would pay out their vacation pay at the end of the year to bring them to the Jan. 1st date. So, if someone was hired in September, pay them what is owing from Sept. to Dec. Then they are on the calendar with the rest of the employees. I just converted to this system myself and had to pay out the vacation owed.

You receive based on where you worked.

You mean you were in a salaried position since you aren't paid for OT just 40hrs a week.  If you and your employer qualify under FMLA you can request up to 12wks of UNPAID (or paid at THEIR discretion) leave.  It doesn't have to be at one time.  However it sounds like that's not really an option for you.  Since you are requesting a new job you have to agree to the job or decide not to work.  They have NO responsibilty for unemployment since it's not their actions causing you to leave work.  Unemployment only comes in if your employer lets you go without reason (doesn't mean you have to be fired, just told we're letting you go because you can't fulfill the job requirements).  Since you're the one causing the job action you thus do not qualify for unemployment.  \n\nSeems they've offered you at least something, which is more then they have to.  Remember they're not responsible for your actions.

You may have to pay them back for the training, but probably not for the salary. You need to check the state labor laws regarding such things. I know you signed a contract, but not all things signed are legal according to state law. If it violates state law to ask for salary already paid, then they dont have a leg to stand on.

most companies will  pro-rate any paid vacation owed from the time of the year it became vested, minus any used time, and what part of the year your employment was terminated.\ni recently left such a job in april, and only received one weeks pay(i would have been entitled to take a total of 3 weeks this year) because i left after the 1st quarter of the yearly pay period\nask your human resource manager for their answer

I'm posed with that same question.  I resigned last week, but my last day is June 15, 2006.  I chose this date based upon my finances.  I wanted to pay off my bills first and secure a temp. position with another company.  This will free up my employment status for paid internships and study time.  \n\nThe sooner they know the better.  This gives them time to bring in someone new and if you let them know early they may ask for your input on who should take the position and may ask you to shadow and train this individual before you leave.  You can add these skills to your resume as training and it also looks good when you go back to work that you were assigned such tasks.  It makes you look like a team player and an asset to your previous employer.

Put down, YES! If you don't that is an automatic RED FLAG!!\nLabor laws restrict what an employer can day about you. Otherwise they can be sued. Most employers will only give out dates of hire and when you left the company. They can also give out salary info. The one question they can answer that can hurt sometimesis, Would you hire this person back. If they say, No, then they take that as a sign you may have been fired. You can always say that it's your understanding that the company does not rehire ex-employees

It really depends on your company's policy.  I asked a similar question to HR after my company was taken over.  She said the old company wouldn't do anything, but the new one might pursue.  The company might take your last paycheck to offset the dollar amount they have "lost."

If you can prove you worked the hours that would vary state to state on what your recourse is.  They legally have to pay you at least a training wage for hours worked, but again, you'd have to prove you worked the hours.  Is there a time swipe system that you could contact the company for just a record of time worked?  And go get a photo id that is not expired to further the processing.  Possibly the headquarters is just telling you your paycheck is stalled until all paperwork is processed.  Hope this helps...
