An employee of ours gave me her 1 week notice yesterday afternoon. She called in and left a voice mail this morning that she "wouldn't make it in today." Short-timers syndrome, no biggie. We're going to prepare her final check and show her the door tomorrow morning. However, an email we found on her company account shows her telling a friend that because we aren't paying her out her sick leave, she's going to use it all before she goes.
Knowing this, and considering she didn't specify in her message that she was sick, do we have to pay her out the sick time for today? We'd planned on being nice and paying her through her last day, plus vacation. At this point, we'd rather pay her the bare minimum and wash our hands of it. Her desk is already cleaned out so there's no need for her to return for anything.
Do we have to pay her sick time? Can we apply vacation time for today instead of sick? What exactly does she get paid out for at this point?
Thanks!!
