Why turn rotors when replacing pads?

I just want to check with all of you experts on something my mechanic has recommended. This is a mechanic who I really trust and he worked in the Volvo factory for 13 years.

I am having him replace the pads on the rear brakes (36K miles on them) and he has advised that the rotors should be turned, too. He says that otherwise the brakes will squeal a lot.

What do you all think?
