As a general matter, employers do not have to pay "vacation pay" unless they have agreed to do so. You do not set forth facts showing your clear entitlement to such pay. If you believe you are entitled to compensation that your employer has not paid, you have two basic choices: (a) complaint to your state's labor department, or (b) sue to collect the amounts you are owed. Depending on the amount in controversy, suit may be possible in an informal or small claims forum.
