Bob is a massage therapist working for a company with three employees. After a year, he asks to take a vacation only to find out that vacations are not offered by the company. Bob argues that he is due 2 weeks of vacation based on customary vacations received elsewhere. Discuss the legal, practical, and ethical issues.
What will be an ideal response?
Answers should address the employment agreement. The company is not required to provide vacation. However, from a practical perspective, Bob is likely to go elsewhere to obtain those benefits. One may question the ethical situation since Bob seems to have been surprised by the information.
