"Am I not intitled toi my 2 weeks pay as well as the rest of the pay for the week." No. You're employer is not obligated to pay you past the last day you actually worked, regardless of whether you're exempt or non-exempt. You may be eligible for UC benefits for that two week period however, depending on your State's UC regs.

Agreed. For a non-exempt employee, there are NO circumstances when an employer is required by law to pay for time that was not worked.

For an exempt employee, while in most cases the employee must receive their full salary no matter how many hours they work, there are a few exceptions, and one of them is that during the first and last weeks of employment, you only have to be paid for the days you actually work.

So no matter how you slice it, they are not required to pay you for the last four days of the week.
