Two Weeks' Notice Letter in Kentucky
A short, professional resignation letter giving two weeks' notice. Most jobs are at-will, so notice is a courtesy unless a contract requires it — but your state sets when your final paycheck is due (below).
What Kentucky law says
| Final paycheck if you quit | Same rule as for a firing: by the next regular payday or 14 days after leaving, whichever comes later, with or without notice. Source: KRS 337.055 |
|---|---|
| Unused vacation / PTO payout | Kentucky law counts vested vacation pay as wages, so earned vacation that has vested under the employer's policy or agreement must be paid like other wages. Whether vacation has vested depends on the employer's written policy or agreement. Source: KRS 337.010(1)(c) |
