Can paid time off be deducted by an employer with respect to seniority at retirement?
A friend has reached retirement age and has worked for the same national company for 30 plus years. They have a pension plan based upon years of service. The employer claims they can deduct the sum of the time of all of his paid vacations and one stint of medical disability from his seniority regarding his pension. This adds up to a couple of years. I've never heard of this before and I doubt if it is legal and certainly is not fair. Does anyone know if a law applies to this? He is in TN.

Your friend needs to consult a labor attorney in his area. He could call his local bar association and ask for a 30 minute consultation. They may charge him a small fee. In Texas it is about $20.00 to $25.00.
Deducting vacation time does not make sense to me. Vacation is part of your compensation package. If you do not take it, the employer has to pay you for it.
As for the medical disability, that is when the lawyer comes in.
