When are Arizona employers required to provide final pay to terminated employees? – When a notice period is given in Arizona, payout of unused vacation time is not required by law; however, many employers will still pay their employees for unused vacation days. Employees who are terminated or discharged must receive all of their outstanding wages either within seven days or by the next regular payday, whichever is sooner. If an employee quits or voluntarily resigns, they must be paid their outstanding wages on the next regular payday.

Are Arizona employers required to pay employees holiday pay? – Arizona does not currently have any state laws that require paid time off or extra pay for working on holidays. Some employers choose to pay extra to employees who work on holidays and/or pay employees who are not working on holidays, but it is not required by law. Employers should have a written policy and follow that policy.
