Legal Question in Employment Law in California
2 Weeks Notice
My question is about giving your company two weeks notice and a letter of resignation. If they opt to escort you out the day of resignation, are you entitled to that 2 weeks of pay?

Re: 2 Weeks Notice
The employer is not required to give you two weeks pay, unless it is that policy of the company. There is no law that requires them to pay you for anything other than wages already earned. In the case of a resignation, without notice, they must pay you wages and accrued vacation pay, within 72 hours of the notice.
Re: 2 Weeks Notice
You are only entitled to a check for the money earned through the date of your termination. In fact, you are not even entitled to unemployment for that two week period either because it is considered a voluntary termination in the eyes of the law.
