I assume that you are firing them because of something they did prior to leaving for vacation, and which you did not discover until they had already left for vacation.
You may wish to wait until they return from vacation so that you can hear their side of the story, although you'll have to judge whether the circumstances warrant the delay.
Obviously, you are subject to the provisions of the employment agreement and your state's employment laws regarding acceptable reasons for termination and notification of termination.
