Subject: Demand for Reimbursement of Accrued Vacation after Termination Dear [Employer’s Name], I hope this letter finds you well. I am writing to bring to your attention an outstanding matter regarding the reimbursement of my accrued vacation days, which were unfortunately left unpaid following my recent termination from [Company Name]. The purpose of this letter is to formally request immediate reimbursement in accordance with the employment policies and legal obligations set forth by the State of New York. As per the employment agreement and the company's policies, I was entitled to a certain number of accrued vacation days based on my years of service with [Company Name]. However, despite my diligent service for the duration of my employment, these accrued vacation days were not paid out upon my departure. This is a clear violation of my rights as an employee and contravenes the provisions outlined in the New York Labor Law. Under the applicable laws in Suffolk County, New York, it is mandated that all accrued but unused vacation days be compensated to an employee upon termination, whether voluntary or involuntary. These accrued benefits are considered earned wages and should be treated accordingly. Therefore, I kindly request that you promptly reimburse me for the value of my accrued vacation days, calculating the compensation in accordance with my final salary rate. Failure to comply with this reimbursement request within [insert reasonable timeframe, e.g., 14 days] may leave me with no option but to take further legal actions to protect my rights. This could include filing a formal complaint with the New York Department of Labor or pursuing legal recourse through a lawsuit for unpaid wages. I believe that it is in the best interest of both parties to resolve this matter promptly and amicably. To facilitate the reimbursement process, please provide me with a detailed breakdown of my accrued vacation balance, the corresponding monetary value, and the specific date on which the reimbursement will be issued. Once you have collected this information, kindly notify me via email or phone call. Please note that this demand for reimbursement is not intended to strain our previous working relationship, but rather to ensure that my rightful entitlements are upheld in accordance with the law. I trust that you will handle this matter with the urgency it deserves and in compliance with relevant legislation. Thank you for your prompt attention to this matter. I look forward to receiving a favorable response from you within the specified timeframe. Yours sincerely, [Your Name] [Your Address] [City, State, ZIP] [Phone Number] [Email Address] Keywords: Suffolk New York, Letter of Demand, reimbursement, accrued vacation, termination, employment policies, legal obligations, unpaid wages, employee rights, New York Labor Law, Suffolk County, earned wages, compensation, final salary rate, compliance, legal actions, lawsuit, New York Department of Labor, amicable resolution, working relationship.
