Legal Question in Employment Law in California

My company was recently acquired and I will be leaving soon. The

company offers VACATION, FLOATING HOLIDAYS and PAID DAYS OFF. The PDO

policy lists specific reasons it can be used (bereavement, estate

settlement, family, medical primarily). As I understand if the policy

ties PDO to specific events then it is NOT payable at termination?

Through the California EDD website I've tried to read up on vacation

policy examples and also Floating Holiday policy. I've read that

these two items are treated the same and are paid out at termination?

Looking for clarification on what IS and IS NOT payable at termination in california.

You are correct that unused vacation is payable at termination, and your PDO are not. If the "floating holidays" are not restricted, then they should be treated as vacation days. It would, however, require a review of the company policy to be certain.
