When I put in my two weeks notice, the management where I work started treating me badly, so I am quitting sooner. I am afraid they will try and hold my last check. Can they legally do that?

I have quit a lot of jobs (unfortunately) - only one job gave me a 'hard' time. They wanted me to come in face to face instead of just direct deposit or mailing it.... and they wanted their company property (ID badge).
Other than that - when it is the next pay period... I got it just fine.
So if you are sure you don't have anything of theirs.. i think the worst is they make you come in... would be the worst case senerio.

The employer is required under most state laws to issue you a check within 72 hours after leaving. No they can not hold your check

properly the guidelines might variety via state. yet i do no longer think of they might carry his verify because of the fact they think of he has a number of their uniforms. i understand when I worked in HR/ payroll we had to be certain we've been given human beings their final paycheck on time. regardless of the undeniable fact that they no long artwork for that enterprise they're meant to get their verify a similar time as everybody else. What state is he in? i ought to even see if i'm able to get some extra data.

They need to pay you your rightful wage but, you may have company items that need to be returned or they need to release you from a contract before handing your last check over. If none of these are applicable when I would say No!

They can hold yourcheck until the next regularly scheduled payday..They may also require you pick in person.
They may also hold it until you turn in certain items, such as ID badges or tools.
other than that, no.

They cannot legally hold any money you have earned.Also, at least in Texas, they have to pay you any vacation time you have accrued.

No. If you have worked for it, they have to give it to you.
