Employment
Employee Separation Agreement
California
Can an employee be forced to sign a separation agreement that includes non-compete clauses?
I recently received a separation agreement from my employer, which includes non-compete clauses that restrict me from working in the same industry for a certain period of time. I am concerned about the potential impact on my career prospects and wonder if I can be legally compelled to sign such an agreement.
Jeff G.
Forced? No. Can they condition signature to receiving some form of severance? Yes. Can they condition it to receive a final paycheck of money earned? No. Can they include a non-compete in a separation agreement? Yes… but California has VERY employee-friendly laws related to non-competes. The specifics of the presented language in the agreement will matter and should be reviewed by competent counsel in your jurisdiction.

Employee Benefits Agreement
Texas
If an employee is paid salary, can an employee force PTO if said employee is out with a doctor’s excuse?
I got sick and ended up missing a day of work. I went to the doctor and was prescribed meds and told to take meds and rest the next 2 days. I provided an excuse at work. When I got my pay stub, I see the manager forced 24 hours of PTO for the days I was out. Mind you, our hours of operation are 8am-5pm M-F, but I’m here every day at 6:30am and work until 8, 9 or 10:00pm some days. Please advise. Thank you for your time!
Howard B.
The rules for the salary basis of pay is governed by a federal law called the Fair Labor Standards Act. It allow an employer to deduct an entire day's pay if an entire day of work is missed. If any part of such a day was worked at all, then a full day's pay is required by law. HOWEVER, there is an exception under which partial day deductions for partial day absences is allowed if an only if the absence is for Family and Medical Leave Act leave. I'm not licensed to practice law in Texas: if there is any peculiar spin on it through state law, perhaps a Texas attorney will chime in. It is ordinary for an employer to substitute PTO for salary pay when a whole day is missed.

Employment Agreement
Florida
Breach of contract?
I’m a nurse practitioner currently employees under a contract in which I was suppose to receive a bonus paid out 30 days after a 12 month period. One week after the 30 days has passed, the Bonus has not been paid. This is consider breach of contract, correct? the contract stipulates I must give 30 days notice prior to quitting. Does this still apply if he is in breach?
Diane D.
Have you asked about receiving the promised bonus? It may just be late. I would talk to the employer before quitting. And, yes, you must still give the 30 days' notice or you will be in breach. Also, realize, if you quit you may not be entitled to the bonus. I would have to see the contract you signed to actually know what you are entitled to or not.

Severance Agreement
Ohio
Can my employer modify the terms of my severance agreement after I have signed it?
I recently signed a severance agreement with my employer, which outlined the terms and conditions of my departure from the company, including a monetary compensation package. However, my employer has now informed me that they want to modify certain aspects of the agreement. I am unsure if they have the legal right to do so, and I am seeking clarification on whether my employer can make changes to the severance agreement after it has been signed.
Gary S.
Hello. Thank you for the opportunity to respond to this question. In general, NO, once a severance agreement has been signed by both the employer and the employee, the agreement cannot be modified. However, if the employer hasn't yet signed the agreement, and only the employee has signed the agreement, the employer may suggest modified terms as part of the negotiation. Also, if the agreement has been executed by both parties and the agreement contains a revocation period, the employee (or possibly the employer) may still be able to revoke the agreement within a certain number of days. The agreement would have to be reviewed to see if it has a revocation clause. Bottom line, if both parties have signed a validly executed severance agreement, the employer cannot unilaterally modify the terms of the agreement, unless the agreement states otherwise. * This response is for general information purposes only and does not constitute legal advice or create an attorney-client relationship. For advice specific to your situation, please consult a qualified attorney.
