California Vacation Laws & ERISA Lawyers



When can my employer require that I lose my vacation pay in Ca State?


The answer is usually never. Under vacations law in California, when a worker leaves his or her employment, all vested vacation pay must be paid out at the final rate of pay in accordance with the employer's vacation policies. Along these same lines, an employer cannot have a "use-it-or-lose-it" policy under which an employee forfeits accrued vacation time if not used by an anniversary date. On the other hand, an employer can cap or limit the amount of vacation time accrued.


ERISA Attorneys in California


Some employers can skirt the strict California law on vacations by establishing a funded vacation plan under the federal ERISA laws. However, some of these employers do not have vacation plans that comport with the requirements of ERISA, and therefore they are in blatant violation of ERISA law. Obviously, an employee would need the assistance of a California ERISA attorney to determine the official ERISA status of an employer in Ca State.
