What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? Texas
Hello, I have been an exempt employee for the last three years at my company. Last Friday I turned in a two week notice of intent to resign, as is required by published company policy to recieve my earned PTO.
I talked to my immediate superviser on Saturday and was told that my two weeks notice was not necassary and to bring my truck and all equipment to the office this morning. When I did we inventoried everything, and filled out seperation paperwork on which he noted that I was fired for inability to perform job duties.
I noted beside this that this was untrue, I have an impeccable record both attendance and disciplinary and in my statement I wrote that I felt this termination was an attempt to cheat me out of my unused PTO.
The unused PTO amounts to about $2000. Do I have any recourse or avenues to collect this benefit?
Thank you in advance.
