Waiver of Vacation
- Waiver of Vacation specifically allow employees to forego their annual vacation in exchange for
pay in lieu. In general, this request will be refused unless the employee can provide sufficient information to the employer that the proper rest and relaxation that benefits the employee both physically and mentally will be maintained to avoid any adverse effects to the employee’s ability to perform his/her responsibilities.
- If the employee has more then 2 weeks vacation, the unused portion over 2 weeks could be considered for waiver as long as the employee has previously taken or plans on taking the 2 weeks vacation.
- In all cases, the decision to waive a vacation must be agreed to by both the employee concerned and the employer.
