Legal Question in Employment Law in Virginia
Vacation benefits
I am working for a company whose manual states that you earn your vacation for the next year in the previous year. Our new HR manager is trying to change the manual to say that you have to accrue your vacation on every check for the current year and starting in all of our checks this past January has already changed the policy and is having us accrue the vacation without even sending out a new manual. Is this legal?

Re: Vacation benefits
Yes, unless you were working under an actual contract of employment which required otherwise.
There is nothing in Virginia law which requires employers to even provide their employees with paid vacation or sick leave compensation let alone any requirement that the accrual of such leave be counted or calculated in any particular manner.
