Anaheim, CA asked in Employment Law for California

Q: Is an employer required to give you notice if they call you back earlier than the date on your Furlough letter?

I was called back early from my furlough but they have only given me one day notice and I have to make arrangements for my kids and parents. Am I required to return to work immediately or do they have to give me a grace period?

A: There is no law that requires the employer to give any amount of advanced notice for you to return to work. If you do not come in when needed, you can be disciplined and even terminated.

Sorry. Good luck to you.
