If an accrual is prorated, on the policy's first scheduled accrual date, an employee accrues an amount proportional to the fraction of time they worked in the preceding "accrual period" the length of time between scheduled accruals.
Their first accrual will be calculated as follows:. The employee would only accrue 2. This option is only available to TimeAttend and TimeOff customers.
If an accrual is prorated, on the last day of their policy, employees accrue an amount proportional to the fraction of time they actually worked from their last scheduled accrual to the last day of the policy. The time off earned is accrued on the policy's last day, even if it is not a scheduled accrual date. A policy ends when either:.
The employee leaves the company, and their last day is April 15th. Their last accrual will be calculated as follows:. The employee would accrue 0. Is this legal? For example, a plan with the following provisions would be an obvious subterfuge and not regcognized as valid: Year 1: No vacation Year 2: 4 weeks vacation Year 3: 2 weeks vacation The four weeks' vacation earned in the second year, when viewed in the context of the two weeks' vacation earned in the third year, makes it clear that two of the four weeks earned in year two are actually vacation earned in year one.
A valid vacation plan could look like the following: Year 1: No vacation Year 2: 2 weeks vacation Year 3: 3 weeks vacation Years 4 through 4 weeks vacation In those instances where a "waiting period" Year 1 in the examples above is found to be a subterfuge, employees who separate from their employment during the "waiting period" will be entitled to prorated vacation pay at their final rate of pay.
On the other hand, where the employer's vacation plan has a valid "waiting period" provision, employees who separate from their employment during that period will be ineligible for any vacation pay.
I am a part-time employee, and am excluded from my employer's vacation plan only full-time employees get vacation. Yes, it is legal. My employer's vacation policy provides that if I do not use all of my annual vacation entitlement by the end of the year, that I lose the unused balance.
No, such a provision is not legal. In California, vacation pay is another form of wages which vests as it is earned in this context, "vests" means you are invested or endowed with rights in the wages. Accordingly, a policy that provides for the forfeiture of vacation pay that is not used by a specified date "use it or lose it" is an illegal policy under California law and will not be recognized by the Labor Commissioner.
My employer's vacation policy provides that once an employee earns hours of vacation, no more vacation may be earned accrued until the vacation balance falls below that level. In defining "reasonable" in this context, the Labor Commissioner has taken the position that a worker must have at least nine months after the accrual of the vacation within which to take the vacation before a cap is effective.
This "reasonable" time allows an employee to take fully vested vacation at times convenient to both the employee and employer without forcing an employer to accrue a large vacation pay or time liability. Yes, your employer has the right to manage its vacation pay responsibilities, and one of the ways it can do this is by controlling when vacation can be taken and the amount of vacation that may be taken at any particular time. My employer's vacation policy provides that if I don't use all of my vacation by the end of the year, he will pay me for the vacation that I earned and accrued that year, but did not take.
Yes, your employer has the right to manage its vacation pay responsibilities, and one of the ways it can do this is by paying you off each year for vacation that you earned and accrued that year, but did not take.
My employer has combined its vacation and sick leave plans into one program that it calls "paid time off" PTO. Under this program I have a certain number of paid days each year that I can take off from work for any purpose. Does this allow my employer to circumvent the law as it relates to vacations?
No, a "paid time off" PTO plan or policy does not allow your employer to circumvent the law with respect to vacations. Where an employer replaces its separate arrangements for vacation and sick leave with a program whereby employees are granted a certain number of "paid days off" each year that can be used for any purpose, including vacation and sick leave, the employees have an absolute right to take these days off.
Consequently, again applying the principles of equity and fairness, DLSE takes the position that such a program is subject to the same rules as other vacation policies. Thus, for example, the "paid time off" is earned on a day-by-day basis, vested paid time off days cannot be forfeited, the number of earned and accrued paid time off days can be capped, and if an employee has earned and accrued paid time off days that have not been used at the time the employment relationship ends, the employee must be paid for these days.
My employer allows its employees to take their vacation before it is actually earned or accrued. Last month I took my three weeks vacation before I had actually earned all of it. I quit my job this month and my employer deducted all of the unearned vacation days that I had taken from my final paycheck. Can he do this? No, your employer cannot deduct "advanced" vacation i.
Because of work schedules and the wishes of employees, many employers allow employees to take their vacation before it is actually earned. Rounding The calculator rounds to two decimals places. For practicality in scheduling time away, managers may round up to the nearest half hour or hour when approving time off. Skip to main content. Vacation Year:. Standard Hours per Day:.
