Most states treat accrued vacation as wages; therefore, unused, accrued vacation beomces payable at termination.

Colorado, Texas, and Florida require payout of accrued but unused vacation at the same time as all other wages are due when an employee is terminated.

You definitely have to look at your state law. In most cases, vacation would be pro-rated based on the employee's service.

Check with your local laws on this one, don't put the terminated employee on a short stick. You know it will only haunt you in the long run.
