2 weeks' notice

What is the name of your state? Washington

I gave 2 weeks' notice to my employer; however, they let me go on that day and didn't pay me through the end of the 2 weeks' notice.

I am aware that Washington is an at will state. My question is, if they accept my notice, do they have to pay me through the end of that 2 weeks if they let me go early?

Thank you!!

My response:

This exact, same, question has been asked about a dozen times in the last two months by other writers.

And in case you can't find it, I'll tell you.

No.

No Federal or state law, in any state, requires that an employee be paid for time they did not work. They are not required by law to pay you for your notice period. Although some companies do so as a courtesey, they cannot be compelled to.

Depending on the laws of your state, it may be that you will be eligible for unemployment for that time period. You will have to contact your state unemployment commission for a definite answer.
