If an employers policy provides a paid vacation and the employees employment is terminated, is the employer required to compensate for any vacation time I have accrued but not used?
No. Unless the employer’s policy or its labor agreement specifically requires compensation of unused “vacation pay or other compensatory time” to an employee upon his or her termination of employment, Tennessee Code Annotated ยง 50-2-103(a)(3) does not require that an employee’s final wages include such compensation.
