Collect vacation pay while collecting WC benefits?

The workers' comp law does not address the continuation of any benefits - it's usually a matter of wage/hour law and/or collective bargaining agreements. Generally, an employer must pay an employee for any earned vacation time or other earned benefits due them, at the time of termination. Questions about vacation pay owed to an employee should be addressed to the Attorney General, Office of Fair Labor and Business Practices, 617-727-3465. Workers' compensation benefits are not paid for any period that a worker is receiving vacation pay.
