Thread regarding Weatherford International Ltd. layoffs

Question: if laid off, do we lose our remaining vacation time or do we get compensated for them?

Just curious.

It's mandatory for an employer who offers pto and or vacation to pay the time earned by the employee on his or her last check in California. Some other states may vary.

Your state may very but earned vacation time IS payable in some states, regardless of policy. Law trump's wtf policy.

Yep, you are expected to work harder and longer but if you quit or we choose to lay you off we are keeping your blood, sweat and tears. One Weatherford!

They will not pay out for vacation anymore.

The only exception is if you carried time over from before the change they've been paying that out, but after the end of this year you'll lose that time as well. So no more payouts.
