Can employer/supervisor hold my last salary?

i have a friend who resigned last June 16, she gave 30days notice (as per labor code)to the company and the company accept her resignation letter. She's done the exit interview from the Vice President and she has no accountability with the company. But the problem is, her supervisor hold her last pay/salary because of unfinished work or did not complete the turnover of her task. Besides, there is no replacement for her position and the supervisor did not request a replacement for her position to the HR Department. Do they have the right to hold the salary? Can she file a case against the company? Please help. Thank you.

I think she bypassed a chain of command.. Before going up to VP must seek clearance first to Sup/asst.sup/manager..

She's not actually bypassed to her supervisor. Its a tradition to the company that every personnel who resigned will undergo the exit interview by the VP. The only problem is why the supervisor hold her last pay/salary? I need legal advise please..Thanks!

they can hold it for a reasonable period, which imo, is max 60 days.

parang pareho yung case namin. service contract naman ako. naterminate yung contract ko nung june 30, 2012. tapos ayaw pumayag ng supervisor ko hindi na hindi irenew yung contract ko kasi madami daw akong unfinished task.. pinahold nya yung last month salary ko. ayoko ko na magcomply sa mga requirements nya, ayoko na magclear. may legal case ba yun?

i need legal advice on this matter. PLEASE!
