What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? Pensylvania
I work as a hourly employee for my employer.Since I am a consultant I work at the client location. I was hired by my employer last year and had signed a handbook which stated that after billing for 1200 hours in 9 months I can get paid for a weeks vacation.Now when I am asking this the employer is saying that they got over this programme long time back.I was never ever informed by any one from the employer about that and I had planned my vacation considering this benefit.
I had signed the handbook provided to me and have never recieved any updated handbook too. The handbook however had the clause" Because the information, policies, and benefits described in the Handbook are necessarily subject to change, I acknowledge that revisions to the Handbook may occur and that revised information may supersede, modify, or eliminate existing policies."
What are my rights related to this .Can i sue my employer if yes then how to.
