Yellow delays final paychecks to its laid-off employees by a day and has $92.9M in vacation pay up in the air after bankruptcy.
Yellow, having recently filed for bankruptcy, announced that its employees expecting their final paychecks on Thursday will instead receive them on Friday, due to a court hearing.

The company has sought bankruptcy protection multiple times in the last 15 years and previously received a $700 million U.S. Treasury loan in 2020.
