In the USA, normally employees in the private sector do not receive unused vacation pay when they resign or are fired.

When you quit your job in New York state are you entitled to vacation pay?

This can depend on company policy, so you need to check with the company's Human Resource department. In many companies, if an employee has unused vacation time, and if they were not fired, then the company will usually give the vacation pay. If this company is not willing to pay you for your earned vacation time, and you disagree with their decision, then call the Labor Board in your area; they may be able to help you, and they do not charge a fee for this service.

Can an employer refuse to give the employee his earned vacation time off and not to pay them?

Under "normal" employment termination curcumstances, this question depends entirely on the state in which you work in. Different states have different regulations which will contribute to the outcome of your earned vacation pay. In many states, employers are required by law to pay an employee accrued vacation time, regardless of whether you quit, or are fired. Your "earned" vacation time is looked upon exactly as that - "EARNED", so it is considered a payable and taxable. There are states however where there are no provisions, and the outcome of whether you receive pay for accrued time is entirely up to your employer. In a case such as this, you have to consider the following factors: * Does the state require pay for unused vacation time at all (some states just simply do not require this)? * Was there an agreement which entitles the employee to be paid for accrued time off? * Was there an agreement which DOES NOT entitle the employee to be paid for accrued time off? * What is listed in the employee handbook? -HR Monkey-

Generally speaking: yes. But many countries allow company rules that say you must use up your vacation days for a given year in that calender year itself or within 3 months after the end of the calender year. After that, you may simply forfeit the right to the days not used up by then. In many countries companies also are under no obligation to pay out your unused vacation days.
