PTO Donation Program Sample Clauses

PTO Donation Program. 334. There is hereby established a PTO donation program, which will include the following: 1) PTO donation program would be open only to members of the UMPNC bargaining unit (i.e. only those in the bargaining unit are eligible to donate PTO or to receive donated PTO). 2) Donation will be of PTO hours, not cash equivalent. 3) Donation(s) may be made in no less than one (1) hour increments. 4) The donating employee must have at least forty (40) hours of PTO remaining in his or her PTO bank after the donated hours are deducted (this could be prorated according to donor FTE). 5) Donation(s) will generally be made to a central pool. Notwithstanding this, a donor may express a preference for an individual to whom he or she wishes to donate. A minimum of seventy-five percent (75%) of directed donation(s) will be allocated to the preferred recipient if the recipient submits an approved request for hours. Decisions on allocation of donated PTO and approvals will be made by the PTO Donation Committee. Any remaining hours, after those decisions are made, will be added to the PTO Donation Pool. 6) Donations must be voluntary; recipients are not permitted to solicit co- workers for PTO donations. 7) Donations, once made, may not be rescinded. 8) Employees who donate PTO will not realize any income in connection with the donation, nor may the donated time be considered a “charitable gift” for income tax purposes. The donated PTO will not be considered as time paid for the donating employee. Donated leave is treated as wage income that is taxed when the recipient receives the payment, and will be paid at the recipient’s regular rate of pay. 9) An employee who is paid from a sponsored research project (grant or contract) is ineligible to donate PTO, but is eligible to receive donated PTO as described below. 10) Individuals who satisfy the following criteria may apply to receive donated PTO: a) The recipient must have a regular appointment that is eligible to accrue PTO. b) The recipient must have exhausted all paid leave time, including PTO and Extended Sick, before applying to receive donated PTO. c) The recipient must demonstrate that: i) the employee or his/her immediate family member is experiencing a serious medical hardship or catastrophic illness or injury (e.g., cancer, major surgery, serious accident, heart attack, stroke) or ii) the employee is experiencing a serious and significant crisis that requires immediate attention and absence from work (e.g. house fire,...

PTO Donation Program a. Recognizing that a benefit eligible employee may have a “medical emergency” (as defined below) and has exhausted all eligible Paid Time Off (PTO) and Extended Illness Time (EIT) hours and is not receiving payment through short-term or long-term disability insurance, Trios Health will provide the opportunity for individual employees to donate accrued/eligible PTO hours in accordance with the guidelines set forth below (also see PTO cash out above). i. (Note: this policy does not apply to Providers for either donating or donations.) b. Any benefits eligible employee who has an approved medical emergency and who has exhausted all eligible PTO/EIT may receive PTO hour donations from other benefit eligible employees, within specific guidelines. A medical emergency is generally defined as a medical condition of the employee or a member of his/her family that will require a prolonged absence (greater than two (2) weeks) of the employee from duty, while not having eligible accrued PTO/EIT to use or short-term or long-term disability insurance. The requesting employee must complete the Trios Health Paid Time Off (PTO) Donation form, have his/her manager/director approve and provide to Human Resources. Specific requirements for such donation will be included in this form. It will be assumed that any employee off on a qualified FMLA leave has met the definition of Medical Emergency. c. Human Resources will do a final review and if the request is considered approved, will send out an e-mail to all users with the request.
