According to the Limonjyan Law Group, the only paid time off employers cannot decline are those covered by FMLA or CFRA.Article continues below advertisement The group does go on to say, "However, if you request sick time, vacation time, or PTO, the employer can legally deny your request for time off," which aren't covered under these government-protected policies. In the case of Reddit user @rainbowbadger50, it appears their employer denied their paid time off under false pretenses.

In this instance, while the individual in question did work for Associa, they were employed through a third-party temporary staffing agency." "All benefits and PTO requests related to the individual in question were processed solely through this agency and are dictated by their employment policies and procedures. In this regard, Associa is unaware of any prior travel plans which the employee may have conveyed to the staffing agency prior to starting the on-boarding process.
