#vacation

Does anyone know if L6 TM’s who still have a vacation balance will get paid for it if let go Tuesday?

What's the rule???????

What's up with the recruiters asking for a passport in an interview?

FYI for ex-BNY Massachusetts employees…

In Massachusetts, if an employer fails to pay your accrued vacation time when your employment ends, you are entitled to treble damages on the unpaid amount, not just the interest on the late payment. This penalty, known as a treble damages award, is a powerful remedy under the Massachusetts Wage Act. If the employer eventually pays the vacation time late, the employer may have to pay trebled interest on that late payment, but this is separate from the treble damages for the unpaid wages.
What is the Massachusetts Wage Act?
Under the Massachusetts Wage Act, MGL c. 149, § 148, earned and unused vacation time is considered wages.
When an employee is terminated, all final wages, including vacation pay, must be paid on the day of termination.
If an employee resigns, the payment is due by the next regular payday.

I do not believe our crack 1-800 HR people team are following this law for MA employees…

Are these people having a laugh or what. They wait to tell you, on 1st October, about a new policy that supposedly applies this year to use up your vacation days at Christmas... ...and... even if client commitments mean that you can't do that, you'll be expected to do the equivalent of that within 60 days. All of this is supposedly for your well-being. I'm depressed already.

This'll be on top of the 0% pay rise. Luckily, short term illnesses have been shown to last as long as the number of days they need from you...

Per policy I submitted my vacation hours prior to starting vacation and also to ensure I wouldn’t have a missing time card (and not get paid).
We couldn’t work from Sep 2 to Sep 22 due to loss of access. But they sure as heck still docked my vacation accrual for the days I pre-entered for post layoff days Arghh.
Kicking myself in the butt.

Do we get paid out for any unused vacation that is accrued through the end of the PIL period?

During a town hall El Jefe let the cat out of the bag – NCRV is making less money than it is spending so the reduction last week was necessary. He did say he was looking forward with excitement – most likely because he knows there are thousands more that can be cut if necessary!!

Something else that he said was important, he encouraged everyone to go to your doctor appointments and take care of your sick children.

It is what he did not say that is really important here – the fact that they are tracking the number of days in the office and amount of time that you are in the office – so he should have also added that since they are tracking everyone’s time - make sure you are in the office the required number of hours or you will be placed on the next CUT list…

Some friendly advice - to be careful you might want to take a sick day or vacation day when you have to take care of yourself and your family!!

Something else they don’t advertise – you can also take time off without pay. This is useful if you have run out of vacation or sick days and it is obviously not the most desired path but it may just help you keep your job….especially next year when the 5 days / week…8 hours per day requirement kicks in.

My advice is to take your vacation without pay and then save your vacation days for when life happens…I am being sarcastic of course..

To paraphrase El Jefe – if you don’t want to be here 5 days a week 8 hours per day then they don’t want you!! In my opinion that includes just about everyone..

Does citi pay the vacation time you are owed if you quit? Or if you are laid off?

Oracle has unlimited vacation policy on manager discretion. But I noticed managers ensure employee doesn’t take vacations often beyond 2-3 weeks per year. So what happens to those unused vacations on your layoff? Is it wise to take vacations before expected announcements?

If anyone missed they are reducing the 401k / cash balance plan by 2 percent. SLT values young employees over tenured ones saying over 10 year employees receive too much vacation. KC you are the mini me of DR.
