Compensated Absences. The System’s policy is to record the cost of annual leave when earned. Employees earn annual leave at varying rates depending upon years of service and the leave plan in which they participate. The paid time off (PTO) program combines the various leave types that employees may earn into one earning rate that varies depending upon years of service. The policy does not provide for a maximum accumulation of unused PTO. Upon termination of employment, employees are paid for their current balance in PTO at a prorated amount based upon their position. The PTO program also has a bi-annual PTO cash-in option with payouts in May and November. This PTO cash-in option allows employees to cash in any and all portions of earned PTO, provided they maintain a minimum balance of 80 hours. PTO is cashed in at a prorated value of 80% for non-management staff and 50% for management staff.
