I was recently put on commission in my company. Previously we would get paid ten days vacation time based on our salary. Now that I am on commission my manager is telling me that my vacation time now goes against my draw. If I don’t make my draw to cover those ten days then I get in the hole for the vacation pay. Is this legal?
Vacation Time
3 weeks
Does it make more sense financially to use up my vacation time before I leave or to get paid out for it once I leave? I believe that you pay extra in taxes when you’re paid out for vacation time….
My husband has been working at the same job for 18 months. He has NEVER used a single day of vacation time, and in 18 months has been sick once. He did not get paid for the sick day, as we assumed, and that was that. However, he took a day off last week and informed the pay roll woman to credit it towards his vacation time since he knew he had a ton accrued since he’d never used any.
Today, his boss called him to tell him that he has no time accrued and what he did is going to jeopardize his job.
This is a very small mom and pop place that does not put record of accrued vaca time on the pay checks, and does not provide an organized way for us to see how much he has accrued. They did, however, tell him when he was hired, that after his probationary period (2 months) he would start accruing the vaca and could start putting it to use after 1 year.
Can anyone refer me to legal sites that can either confirm or deny the truth to what she is telling him? I do not feel this is correct, however the sites I am finding are not answering my questions…
Can an employer pay some employees vacation time and not others? I asked my employer for vacation time but they told me that because they are a small company they do not have a vacation time policy. But as a matter of fact, they have paid some employees vacation time even previous employees that held my postion. Is this legal?
My employer recently changed their policy that any time you request off, you MUST use vacation time. This includes if you want to leave work an hour early, or take a sick day, etc. The previous policy permitted requesting "Time Off Without Pay." Are they legally allowed to require the use of vacation time?

My employer has changed the cap on PTO as of this year and is asking me to take vacation time because I have far more hours accrued than the new cap allows. Is this legal? Is there such a thing as a "Grandfather" clause in this instance? Is it mandatory (legally speaking) for me to use vacation time to comply with the new policy?
