Not unless it's in the contract that it accrues over the year. I just changed my contract so mine accrues. I have 10 days a year and twice now, people have left the week before I take my leave so I've ended up with unpaid vacation time.

Sure, it sucks from the providers POV when it happen but if not in the contract, you not owe it.
