The employer can ask that you take the vacation time however he cannot force you to do so. Upon permanent branch/business closure the employer MUST pay off any pending balance. It seems like a very GOOD candidate to file a Workers' Compensation Claim. Feel free to contact our office to further discuss at (626) 585-0017 there is NO onligation.
