What is the name of your state? Massachusetts
My employer schedules 5 day "shutdowns" for inventory and maintainence during July and December. Hourly employees are told they have to use there accrued vacation during those "shutdown" times. If they have more time accrued they are eligible to schedule the excess vacation at the discretion of management. In my exempt status I have 80 hours of vacation time right now. Can my employer make me take my vacation time during those "shutdown" periods also? This would leave me with no options!
