Re: Paid within 72 hours of resignation from a job?
Labor Code section 202 requires California employers to pay employees who quit within 72 hours of the date of the quit. However, if the employee gives 72 hours or more notice of their intention to quit then the employer must pay the employee all accrued wages on the day the employee quits.
