What is the name of your state? West Virginia
I live in Ohio and work in West Virginia. I am a full time employee that had two weeks of vacation. Last year (2004) I could not use the full two weeks due to the crazy workload and it was agreed by the boss and payroll that I could carry over the three unused days from last year to use in the first quarter of this year (2005). The employee manual has a section on vacation that states "If your service is terminated voluntarily or otherwise, the Firm is not obligated to pay for any unused vacation or sick days." I turned in my resignation on January 18th, and am obligated to work out the final two weeks. However, this employer is not granting me any vacation time and will not pay the two weeks plus three days that I was set to receive this year.
Is this legal? There is a place in the back of the employee manual that the employee is supposed to sign. I have NEVER signed this and do not agree with some things that are listed in this manual. How do I proceed to get paid for may vacation time when he doesn't include it on my final check? Do I have a case?
Thanks.
