I work for a Corp. out of FL.. I work in CA. My boss didn't get to approve my timecard and now I will be short 24 hrs. They want me to wait 3 wks.
Question Details: I had 3 days of paid time off coming on this paycheck, but on the day my Administrator was to approve my timeard, Corporate approved it before he would put in my time off. Now they want me to wait 3 weeks to add that time to my next paycheck. I have bills to pay. I can't wait. Is it legal to do this to an employee?
Employment and Labor Law Answers
I don't think so. This sounds very much like it is a violation of your rights under the wage and hour laws. You should talk to a labor and employment lawyer in your area, to review all the facts (and I'm sure there's more to this) based on California law, for reliable advice.

My understanding of the law is that overtime or paid time off that you're due has to be paid no later than the paycheck for the pay period after the one in which it's earned or accrued.
