The employee used annual leave “in advance”. He is now resigning due to his retirement. Can the employer withhold funds from him for unused vacation days?
Answer: no, if the employee is dismissed before the end of the working year for which he has already received a full-time vacation, deductions to cover his debt are not made, if the employee is dismissed due to retirement (Article 22 of the Law of Ukraine “On leave”).
