HR people- question
if you resign and give 2 weeks notice
and they ask you to leave before the 2 weeks
do they have to pay you?
(this happened to me before and I was paid- so I am just curious if this is normal or not)

I think it's up to the company. A girl I used to work with gave her 2 weeks notice but the company let her go about a week prior and paid her.

Yes, I'm almost certain that once the employee resigns, the company has to pay them for their time if they ask them to leave sooner.

Re: HR people- question
It's not legally required - but most companies will pay "in lieu of notice".
I've never worked anywhere that didn't do that.

Ditto. It's a good faith practice, but not a requirement at all.

Tritto.
The reason why companies pay is that they prefer to get 2 weeks notice. If they fired people earlier, no one would give notice at all.
It isn't required. I do wonder how that would affect unemployment benefits since technically you were terminated early.

so if I resign- then I am sent home w/o pay- I can get unemployment

Re: HR people- question
If it was a requirement, could I give a 2 year notice?  Either guaranteed job for 2 years, or 2 years pay up front.... hmmmm...

NO
they do not have to pay you
however, you can use vacation time if they have a policy of paying for ununsed vacation
otherwise you are SOL.

They do not have to pay you. However, you will be entitled for unemployment for the days between your actual last day and the last day on your resignation later.
