I am an hourly employee, do I get paid time off?
The accrual schedule of PTO for non-exempt employees.
If you are an non-exempt (hourly) employee in the U.S., you begin to accrue Paid Time Off (PTO) according to the schedule below. Employees can request use of PTO only after it is earned. The amount of PTO that you receive increases with the length of your employment as shown in the following schedule:
Upon Hire: 4.62 hours accrued each pay period = 15/120 days/hours accrued each year
Beginning Year 5: 6.15 hours accrued each pay period = 20/160 days/hours accrued each year
Beginning Year 10: 7.69 hours accrued each pay period = 25/200 days/hours accrued each year
Maximum allowed PTO Balance: 240 Hours
Here are some details about sick time you may need to know:
- PTO rolls over from year to year, it does not expire on December 31, unlike sick time or Volunteer Time Off.
- PTO stops accruing if your balance reaches 240 hours and will not begin to accrue again until the balance is below 240 hours.
- PTO balance will be paid on your final paycheck.
