Is an employer required to pay you the holiday time that you saved up prior to termination? My employer was aware that I'd been saving up two weeks worth for a vacaction that is only 3 weeks away when they fired me.

By "holiday", I assume you mean vacation. Arkansas law requires that accrued vacation be paid at termination if the company policy provides for it; it is not unconditionally guaranteed.

Haven't visited the optometrist, yet, have you Patty?:p

Arkansas, not Arizona.

Yeah, it logged me out before I could edit it. *sigh*

what if it's not specified, vacation or sick days? what if they just call it PTO (paid time off)

Is this a loop hole employers use to get around having to pay you?
