in Florida can an employer REQUIRE 1 month notice for resignation? Can they withhold pay if 1 month is not given?
I am an exempt employee, not under contact, in
Florida. According to my handbook my employer requires 1 month notice, otherwise they may hold salary earned and / or leave paid accrued. Is this legal?

They can withhold your vacation pay since they did provide notice of this policy. They may be able to withhold part of your salary for your last pay period as well, but cannot pay you less than minimum wage in your last paycheck.

Since you are on notice of this your claim may be more difficult, but anytime an employer fails to pay a wage you have a claim in Florida that allows for the recover of attorney's fees and costs.
