In the USA, normally employees in the private sector do not receive unused vacation pay when they resign or are fired. In the public sector, however, it is commonplace for public employees to receive pay for unused vacation pay. If a union is involved, then this issue will be found in the Union's agreement with the employees company or department.

In many US States, even a resigning city school superintendent will receive pay for unused vacation days and even unused sick days.
