Legal Question in Business Law in California
Two Week Notice
Two Questions. 1) Is it true the employeer has to have your last pay check the day you leave if you've given a two week notice? 2) If it is true, and they don't, what can I do about it to make sure that I'm not the only one that is taken advantage of?

Re: Two Week Notice
If an employer fires someone, or if someone quits after giving adequate notice, the now ex-employee must be paid off at the end of the last shift they work, i.e. at the time they depart. If the employee quits without prior notice, he/she must be paid within 72 hours. These are general rules covering 99% of situations. There are exceptions based (usually) on occupation.
Complaints regarding illegal practices should initially be brought to the attention of the Industrial Relations Dept. of state government. You should find a listing in the government section of your phone book.
