Do state retirement systems allow you to use un-used sick leave as service time to retire early?

You can get insurance for when you are off work due to illness. The SSP is to help you out and not to pay all your bills.  What should the state pay? Your broadband bill, your car costs, your credit cards, where does it stop.  It is like the Job seekers allowance.  It is there to help you out.  Trouble is so many people stay on benefit, IE young single mums, drug addicts, lazy people who have never paid into the welfare state.  Too many people expect far too much from the state.  I know a young mother who is 21 and has never worked.  She has 5 children, a council house a dog two rabbits and a seven seater MPV.  She claims a fortune every week and keeps on turning out babies so she doesn't have to go to work.  The kids have different fathers who are on state benefits and have never worked. One is married with 4 kids all fed and clothed on the state.  The woman I speak of has a babysitter twice a week provided by the state because she cannot cope with her kids.  They collect the kids and return them later in the day to give her a break.  She batters them and gets away with it.  She also goes out drinking every Friday and Saturday night. Everything in her house has been provided by the likes of you who normally work for a living. She had her first child at 14 and her language is foul.  That is why the state cannot pay you any more than 70 pounds a week.  Hands up anyone who knows of similar cases.

I would say so!  Paid time off as in vacation days - or sick days - or personal days.  Definitly.  Health insurance is a big one too.  If you don't offer these things you will have slim pickens in the people who apply.  \n\nFor my husband - there were some main factors  (workers comp isn't even a thought - it is illegal not to have it if a company has employees - so it's not a benifit - it is just expected)  \n\nThe main factors though were:  Salary, Health benifits, Bonuses, Location (not more than 25 to 30 minutes away), Position, Company phylosophy (some want blood out of stone) vacation days (2 weeks minimum - 3 weeks is preferable) \n\nAll these things are areas that can attract or repel qualified applicants.

You can get it if you can prove you're too sick to work. But it takes a long time and social security turns most people down the first time so you'll have to appeal.

Did you know you have to work at the same job for at least 20 years to collect a pension, 30 years to collect a full pension and can't collect till you are 62...year after year the government takes your money and again you have to wait till you are in your 60's to get a small portion back from social security...hats off to people who worked hard all their lives and still have good health and able to work in their 60's & 70's!\nGreedy????

sounds like homework.  I've never heard of an employer being forced to allow an employee to resign by law.  Now if you mean were you don't show up to work for X days without calling in and your employer considers it a resignation that's a bit different.  Again it's not really law, but a policy issue.  Also most states are at will and thus no reason must be given to have an employee leave.

I wouldn't count on it.  If you're young, you don't need to depend on receiving SS when you retire.  It would be a wise idea to participate in your employer's retirement program or invest some money some way so that you are preparing for your future.

I've never heard that. I live in Ontario. However my workplace does offer that service as part of the benefits package so likely others do too.

I don't believe your employer is able to send you home for being ill unless it is outlined in your employment contract.  If you have sick leave they may be able to send you home. I am not sure. But if they send you home I don't know if they could dock you pay.

If you are already tired and can't work, you can retire.\n\nBut if you are still strong, determined and maybe no supporting relatives when you retire, you must still go on working.

I could be wrong, but I think that is more of an 'employer specific' kind of question. I live in Pennsylvania and I have held several different types of jobs here- some allow the rollover vacation days and others consider it a forfeiture of days at year's end, if they aren't taken....\nSo I think it might really be up to you employer...

I think you can. Since you should have been given releiving letter and balance of the due of you retirement benefits. As far adjusting the loan against your due - bank always take appropriate document to adjust your loan against your dues. In fact they can do this against Set-off rule without any papers. So you may not be able to fight on this count.\n\nFrankly speaking, the bank would have taken proper precaution for completing all formalities. Another thing it may be that you were not even an employee of the bank rather were recruited as consultant only. There fore would advice that before getting in some legal tangles and wasting your time and money, better take a look on all facts before taking any step.

Technically yes, but I don't know about your case.  It will depend on the disability insurance contract your employer has with its insurannce provider.  In most cases, the benefit is "integrated" with any other income the insuree is receiving.  Integrating means that dollar for dollar, any income you receive reduces your disability payment.  Income can include PTO, sick leave, holiday pay, other insurance payments like Workmen's Comp.\n\nBasically, let's say your disability pays you $400 a week, and you get $300 a week from Workmen's Comp.  Your disability benefit for that week will be $100 (before tax). That's how "integrating" works.\n\nSource:  I'm on medical leave, and my company's insurance contract specifies that I had to use all my available PTO pay and the disability insurance company integrated that, so for my first 3.5 weeks, I didn't get a penny from the insurance company.  Only after I had exhausted my PTO and had no income did I begin to receive full disability benefit payments.\n\nP.S.  If your injury or illness is expected to require a prolonged absence from work, or a reduced work schedule etc, then you should inquire to your HR about FMLA leave. (Family Medical Leave Act).\n\nFMLA provides protection for the worker on medical or family leave.  You probably need to check out your status. Start by asking your Human Resources rep, or your employer if there is no HR dept.\n\nHere are a few links to FMLA and labor sites you may find helpful.\n\nhttp://www.dol.gov/elaws/esa/fmla/s1.asp\n(this is the federal FMLA website)\n\nhttp://www.laborlawtalk.com/forumdisplay.php?f=15\n(LaborLawTalk.com is an excellent forum for any labor\nquestions/issues.)\n\nAlso check with your state agencies.

short term and long term disability through your employer are totally separate from social security . But yes you can apply ,and should because it is a time consuming process . It won't start paying until all of their requirements are met

There isnt a state that I know of that allows eight hour days without breaks.  Believe it or not, it is clearly within your complete rights to ask your employer if you are getting your legal amount of breaks.\n\nEven if its a job that it would be difficult for them to run without you, if you are still entitled by law, so be it.

Whoever told you that you do not accrue vacation pay at the end of the fiscal year was lying to you.  This is supposed to be done, as well as an accrual for sick time.  This usually appears as compensated absences on the financial statement.  Some companies include the accrued amount for the above on the accrued wages payable line of the balance sheet.\n\nAlso the amount you accrue depends upon their personnel policy regarding vacation and sick pay.

The question really can't be answered without more information.  Was it truly without warning?  I doubt it.  But assuming it was, then the answer to your question is "no."  You are entitled to due process, which means notice and an opportunity to be heard prior to having benefits cut off.  \n\nTalk to your local department of health and human services.  Or, see if there are free legal clinics in your area.
