I need to turn in a two week notice, but my boss has a week of PTO scheduled (one of many weeks this summer). He still “checks in” via email and IM while on leave. Is it unacceptable to turn in a notice while he’s technically on PTO, even if he’s still checking in periodically?

Desperate for help from HR experts!

According to California Law, employers must pay unused vacation. Each year, we are given 33 days of holidays, no accrual. I was just laid off and my employer only paid half of my vacation because it’s mid year. Is this legal?

In hibob it says I had 32.5 days accrued.

Thanks for your help!

Partners - Do you ever take vacations?

I have been at my current firm for about 1.5 years, and in that entire time the partner in my group hasn't been out of the office a single time. Is that normal?
