Personal Time Off (PTO)

All full-time and part-time employees will accrue PTO based on hours worked and tenure. Employees will accrue PTO hours from their date of hire and may use it once accrued. Exempt employees should report PTO in full or half day increments, according to the hours they are scheduled to work each day. Non-exempt employees may take PTO in increments of 30 minutes.

Non-exempt Employees
