Tennessee HB2004 requires employers to compensate employees for unused accrued paid leave upon separation from service.
Tennessee HB2004 amends Tennessee Code to mandate that employers compensate employees for unused accrued paid leave when they separate from service. This compensation must be paid as wages at the employee's final rate of compensation, in a lump sum within thirty days of separation. The bill defines "paid leave" as annual leave or paid vacation leave that accrues to an employee's benefit. It also prohibits the forfeiture of accrued paid leave upon separation from service, though it allows for limitations on the total amount of leave that can accrue before requiring its use.
