I now have an extreamly stressful, demanding job that is driving me nuts! Fortunately, I just had an interview for a much better job all the way around, and have a 2nd interview on Monday. I could care less if I go back to the "hell hole", and I have had my vacation long planned for this upcoming week, months before this interview. If I find out on Monday I get the job, I can start a week from Tuesday. Can my boss denie me my vacation pay if I leave the job I have now after vacation to start the new job? He knows I had the interview, and I am not happy there. He told me, in a sincere manor, not to worry about a two week notice if I do get the position. I don't know if it is actually a law that employers are obligated to pay the vacation pay, even if the employee may want to use it as part of their notice.

Don't tell him you got the job untill after your vacation. Take your paid week off and if you get the job take it. When the week is up and you are suposed to go back to work call him or go in and tell him that you quit. Let him know that you thought about it while you were on vacation and that your mental health is more impoertant than this job. Thank him for the opertunity or what ever and start your new job. You most likely already earned the paid time off so you do not have to worry about it. If you did not earn the time off you might have to pay the unearned part back, meaning you might only get paid part of the time off.

I am a Controller within a well known, public held company:
I'm not sure what state you live in as the laws do differ from state to state. In most cases it is up to the company whether or not to pay you for unused vacation time. It is the policy of most companies to pay out unused vacation, no matter what. More than likely your company’s policy is to pay out unused vacation time. If that is the case then they MUST pay you those unused hours no matter how you left the company and what kind of notice you have given them.

It depends on the state in which you live. In California, vacation is a benefit that is payable on severance, regardless of the circumstance. The laws here are very pro-labor. And I seriously hope that your new job doesn't involve spelling skills.

In California, if someone resigns and supplies you a minimum of seventy 2 hours' observe, then the finest paycheck ought to easily accept on the finest day of work and it ought to include amassed vacation pay. in accordance to one internet website, about 1/2 of the states require vacation pay to be coated on your very last paycheck.

Contact your state Department of Labor and your State Attorney General.
