Will offering more vacation time to certain new hires land us in a tight spot with our existing staff?

02/10/2014

Q: Our company handbook states all new employees are to get one week of vacation after their first year of service. After five years, they receive two weeks, and after 10 years, three weeks. Are we allowed to grant new employees two weeks’ vacation starting on the day they are hired, or would this be a company policy violation? – Tracie, Alabama
