Common use of PTO Use Clause in Contracts

PTO Use. 1. Employees may begin to request, schedule, and use accrued PTO hours immediately upon accrual. There is no waiting period. Employees may receive payment for approved time off as long as they have a sufficient amount of PTO time in their bank. 2. During the first four (4) months of employment, newly hired employees assigned to departments that are not staffed on holidays will be allowed to have a temporary negative balance in their PTO bank and will be paid for the holiday if the employee was scheduled to work and the employee requests to use PTO. However, the negative balance is not to exceed the number of scheduled hours attributed to the holiday. 3. With any scheduled time off, the supervisor’s approval is required in advance. 4. Because staffing needs and workloads vary, some departments may have specific procedures which outline PTO scheduling parameters, such as the specified period of time required for requesting vacations and other personal time off. 5. PTO hours are to be used for requested time off and for time off on recognized holidays, except as otherwise required by law or policy. Supervisors may in advance, at their discretion, approve unpaid scheduled time off for non-exempt employees not to exceed sixteen (16) hours for 8-hour, twenty (20) hours for 10- hour, and twenty-four (24) hours for 12-hour employees per calendar year. Employees must submit their request for unpaid time off at least 48 hours prior to the scheduled shift for which they are requesting to take unpaid time off. 6. Accrued PTO may be used at a rate not to exceed the employee’s FTE status each pay period as shown in the Human Resources Information System, except in cases when the employee had used PTO for a scheduled workday and then was asked to work additional hours or shifts. 7. Any accrued, unused PTO hours will be paid out upon termination of employment. If termination is the result of Inter- Affiliate Employment, refer to the Inter-Affiliate Employment Policy. 8. Accrued PTO may not be used for an employee’s last day of employment, unless applicable law provides otherwise. Employees must work their last day of employment. Inter- Affiliate transfers may use up to one week (40 hours) of accrued PTO to bridge their last day of actual work at the departing affiliate and the first day of employment at the hiring affiliate.
